Huge Linocut Printmaking Process at home - The Rite of Spring 💐

[@questioneverything2488]

You have given me a wonderful inspiration and I feel like I want to get up right now and start from the beginning from simple things and move to more complex beautiful things and hope that one day I will reach the same standards that you have, thank you very much and bless you, more videos please, more😁😁🌼🌻🌷🌷🌷

[@Kathens]

Oh thank you so much! I always love to hear that my videos inspire some people to create art themselves. Hope you enjoy your journey 🥰

[@fuzzles93]

Thanx for this video it helped me know what tools to get

[@maggiefreeman6513]

Beautiful linoprint. Thanks for sharing.

[@jacobmacleod4054]

Beautiful artwork! I love combining organic and regular lines, the human experience with celestial/sacred symbolism. Thank you for sharing!

[@Kathens]

Thank you!

Hello, very nice, I made my own barren with the round plastic cup that I used to move furniture with, it’s hard plastic and very flat on the bottom, there is several different sizes, I picked the 3.5 in diameter, you can use it as is or wrap it in cloth to make it glide better on the paper. Good luck! Henri.

[@Kathens]

Oh thanks for the advice 😊

[@mcjtaba]

Oh, this is awesome! I was looking for a way to draw my own illustraitions

[@mehrnooshcharkhab]

It's so fucking amazing 💜🥺

[@timschutz7962]

Beautiful and inspiring! The new print looks great and the video is a pleasure to watch. Thank you!

[@davidjames2145]

The first piece was epic in itself, the second amazing. I love the traditional design and folklore feeling of the second piece.
I'm relearning having not done it since school days, so this was inspirational.
Many thanks for posting.

Oh thank you 😊 Hope you‘re having fun rediscovering this amazing technique.

[@tiialaine]

soooo beautiful!!

[@aurixa446]

Omg soo crazy how much effort you put into that! And the result is so pretty, wish I could hang it on my wall!!! Thank you for your work

[@moviemellon]

Very soothing atmosphere you got there! Actually considered getting into woodcutting for some time too! Thinking about reviving that idea now.

[@Kathens]

You should definitely try it out! The cutting process can be so meditative 😌

[@diannehanby1855]

Thank you for posting this, have been wanting to try linocutting for a while but you have inspired me to give this a go. I have so many ideas running through my mind for so long but with your inspiration I’m definitely going to go and buy some tools.

[@Kathens]

That sounds great 😊Carving is so much fun and if you have cool ideas already I'm sure they'll turn out beautiful.

[@outsidewithbea]

I marvel at how you manage to keep the paper so clean. I keep washing my hands after putting the lino onto the paper but still somehow get fingerprints and smudges all over. The stuff gets everywhere!!
And how do you place the lino evenly-centred and straight? I'm having trouble with wonky prints 🙃

[@miloandersonofferein]

This is amazing, and has given me a lot of inspiration. I'm just starting linocut printing. Thank you!

[@Kathens]

That's great! I am sure you are gonna have a lot of fun!😊

[@sarilyb.]

Wow, habe dich gerade mit diesem Video entdeckt! Super tolle Arbeit😍
Ich habe mich noch nicht an ein so großes Motiv gewagt, bei mir waren es bisher immer kleinere Motive. Es macht einfach so Spaß 😊
Welches Papier nutzt du?
Liebe Grüße Sarah

[@Kathens]

Hey, danke dir 😊Ja zurzeit finde ich kleinere Motive auch schöner weil sie so schnell fertig sind. Das Papier ist von Gerstäcker: Feines Linoldruckpapier 120 g/qm

[@alphabeater]

very nice video

[@_Ragnarocket]

I love this print!, awesome I made a few notes there I've been doing lino prints for a few years but never really watched others doing them, I always use those pale rubber tiles, I noticed at least yourself and the other youtubers I've watched seem to use that traditional tiles is there a reason for this or is it just because it's traditional? I loved that you used procreate and transfer paper too I always just trace over my sketches and pencil rub them on the tiles. That spoon rub thing too I just used a roller to add pressure will give that a go. Very cool to see thank you.

[@Kathens]

Thank you 😊 Yes I sometimes use those rubber tiles, too. But I noticed a difference in texture while printing, so it depends on how you want it to look like. I also find the traditional tiles a bit harder, so for me it‘s perfect for carving details, but I guess that‘s just preference.

[@geckowithapencil]

I’ve recently got into Lino printing myself, love the medium, and I just saw your video pop up on my recommended page! this was filmed so well and all together an amazing video to watch! Please keep at it, I think you’ll become very popular! 👏

[@Kathens]

Thank You, that's so kind 😊 When i made my first lino cut I immediately fell in love with the technique as well! 🥰

[@helenaswunderwelt9311]

Hast du dir das selbst beigebracht, also diese Stempelplatten zu machen? Das ist sooo toll!

[@Kathens]

Ja genau 😊 Einfach drauflosgeschnitzt und dann gemerkt wieviel Spaß das machen kann.

[@sarahb2652]

Hi, I have recently started watching your vlogs and love your artwork. Your lino printing has just got better and better over the vlogs. I bet you have really strong hands now from all the lino cutting !!😀. Are the pictures for your university course? Thank you for sharing so many different art mediums that you do, it's fascinating and inspiring.😊

[@Kathens]

As for now only my right arm has become ripped haha 💪 The last projects were actually personal ones and I like bringing new mediums to the mix. Thank you so much for following along! 😊

[@nadja.schenk]

First of all I really love Mucha and your interpretation of this work. ❤
I completely feel you... I just bought myself some Leno for stamp making and the cutting-out process is so therapeutic.
I have a question about the printed pattern for the cut process: how did you print on the lino? And after every color layer did you refresh the cutting pattern?
Thanks for your lovely video and your artwork ❤

[@emmaleveau9665]

Bonjour, super travail ! Quelle tablette utilisez vous ? Mercin

[@sugorine]

8:05 I love using a bone folder for that.

[@creativitytoolkit6719]

Wow. Just wow! There's so much hard working going on here, it's mesmerizing! And that drawing is soooo pretty!
Btw, what if you use a rolling pin, like the bakery ones, to press the thing? 😅

[@Kathens]

Thanks a lot! I've tried that once, but my arms weren't strong enough to get to the details of the print 😄

[@creativitytoolkit6719]

@@Kathens oh, it seems you're only left with the choice of buying a hydraulic press then 😂

[@jodl75]

gefällt mir das Motiv...nun habe ich schon einige Vids geschaut und sehe das wohl für feinere Kurven und Details das Softlinoleum besser geeignet scheint denn, Linoleum das eigentlich gemeint ist und verkauft wird, is das BRAUNE und das hat ne andere Verarbeitungscharakteristik. Wie is da die Erfahrung? ...

[@Kathens]

In diesem Video habe ich eine weiche Forbo Soft-Linolplatte benutzt und kam gut mit den Details zurecht, allerdings muss man da ein wenig aufpassen, da es schnell wegbricht.
Ich habe nur einmal mit braunem Linoleum gearbeitet, das mir aber etwas zu hart war. Aber das ist natürlich Geschmackssache 🙂

[@stephene.2096]

Hey, versuchs mal mit Liquitex matt Gel medium. Einfach dein Motiv mit Laserdrucker ausdrucken. Die Linolplatte mit dem Medium dünn einstreichen das Motiv aufkleben, vollständig trocknen lassen und am nächsten tag vorsichtig das Papier mit einem feuchten Schwamm von der Platte reiben. Das Motiv bleibt auf der Platte erhalten. So ersparst du die aufwändiges und ungenaues Übertragen mit Kohlepapier ;)

[@Kathens]

Oooh das hilft mir echt weiter! Ich habe das schon öfters bei Anderen gesehen und mich immer gefragt was genau sie benutzen.
Ich probiers demnächst mal direkt aus, danke für deine Hilfe! 😊

[@stephene.2096]

@@Kathens Hey, klaro! Immer gerne..ich benutze das hier, klappt super :

I wanna know the aftercare of a lino print tshirt like is it washable? Does it wear off?

[@youbelonghere74]

What kind of paint do you use on the lino first, so you can see where to cut? I've seen people do this before and I'm confused but it looks super helpful. Amazing linocut btw, very impressive. And a really soothing video :)

[@Kathens]

Thanks 😊 Thats just acrylic paint diluted with some water. I think every translucent ink/paint works for that.

[@youbelonghere74]

@@Kathens thank you so much!

[@nikkigonzales]

What kind of paint is the blue paint you used for the thin layer you put before carving? Thanks :)

[@Kathens]

Oh that is just some acrylic paint, that I diluted with some water 😄
