It's absolutely beautiful how those poppies come to life when you start making them black and carving out some light.

I was just looking at your old videos yesterday, wondering where ya went; Good to see you're still at it, Great Stuff!

Thanks! I took a little break to learn a few new skills, but am looking forward to producing more consistent content on here :)

Amazing work!
Just wondering if you always use sharpies to tint your linoleum and whether or not it will hurt the integrity of the piece?

How to print your design so dark on your lino? Also, where do you source your lino? I am only asking because when you carve it, it looks so fresh and seems so much easier and smoother to carve. The lino I get from the art store seems almost dried out and crumbly compared to what you're using in your videos.

I have a link in the description for the type of lino I use. It's battleship grey from dick blick. The black on the block is sharpie. I draw with the sharpie as I go.
