Thank you very much for this.Retired now being an illustrator and artist. Going to give this a bash. Always wanted to do Lino prints back in art school.
Always thought I was doing something wrong when I cut the back and ended up with shitty edges! Don't know why it never occurred to me to cut it the other way round, thank you so much
6:11 Enjoying a snort from a bottle clearly marked with the word "POISON" and a skull and crossbones? So much for lino cutting being the domain of dainty aesthetes and gentle, timid souls! :)
Hi Chris, You talk about the marker you use to draw the artichoke, would you tell me the brand and what size it is? Thanks so much, enjoying your videos.
Appreciate your techniques which I am finding very useful indeed, but I was horrified by the lack of rubber gloves on on your hands while rubbing onto the paper. Acetone is very toxic. Otherwise, thank you for your terrific demos. Stay safe!
Acetone is not very toxic. It is the main ingredient in nail polish remover. You should certainly use it in a well ventilated space, and you shouldn't drink the stuff - and it is flammable, of course - but it is otherwise pretty innocuous. Check the MSDS when in doubt.

I love the purple spirits in the fancy bottle! I certainly haven't seen that for sale anywhere. I would have bought it if I had!
Thank you so much for sharing excellent detail on your process, garnered from considerable experience!
A laser printer, paper that stickers come on (the shiny side), and Liquitex Gloss Heavy Gel, will transfer an image to lino in great detail.
Anyone else notice the big whiff he took off the towel he sprayed? Lol
thankyou so much great advice
So what about mod modge photo transfer medium?

The cameraman is breathing directly in my ears with his mouth widely opened. How distracting and annoying could be that!
It is so off-putting, i genuinely muted the video and turned subtitles on :(
