I have finally been freed from the clutches of the big sad that sapped all my motivation to art into the void, so I can now present Squeed my newest lino block. I was inspired by HP Lovecraft may he rest in piss for being a racist, but his work in cosmic horror has been inspirational for me.

A linoleum block carved with the image of a squid-like creature featuring 5 arms and 2 spade pointed tentacles, the body of the creature is carved with lines that give a textural difference. The creature is surrounded by 5 small round objects similar to bubbles, and the whitespace on the block surrounding the creature has small wave-like patterns

Pure whimsy 🧡

[ #cuteart #illustration ]

An illustration of a cute, chubby pigeon sitting like a load on top of two stacked pumpkins, with another tiny pumpkin on its head. The color palette is very autumnal and warm. Above the pigeon it reads “pure whimsy.”

Another print to add to the bouquet, this time a mandevilla flower, I also used mulberry paper for the first time :3

#linocut || #linoprint || #printmaking || #art || #flowers || #releifprint

A black linocut print on ivory stock featuring a mandevilla flower in a rectangular frame. The flower sits in the foreground atop a stem leading to 4 buds to the upper left of the flower, as well as a single small leaf to the upper right of the flower. The flower also sits in front of 2 large overlapping leaves to the left pointing towards the upper left corner of the frame, these leaves also cover a second stem that extends from the top of the frame to the bottom, and ends in 2 buds. The flower in the foreground also covers 3 smaller overlapping leaves in the bottom right of the frame, the bottom most of is fading into the frame. The flower itself features 6 overlapping petals each covered in concentric arc-like lines leading towards the center of the flower. The petals terminate in the center of the flower where a series of marks expanding from the center point give the impression of an explosion or hole where the terminus of the petals would be.

I finished my first ever print set, meant to be framed together as a single whole :3
#printmaking #linocut #linoprint #art #flowers

A set of 3 black linocut prints on ivory paper hung by wooden clips from a drying line. The leftmost print is two carved calla lilies with rounded line accents growing from the bottom right of a rectangular frame. The negative space has moderate chatter, and the print has wide margins surrounding it. The center print is a magnolia flower growing from the bottom right corner of a simple rectangular frame. The rightmost print is 2 Japanese Anemone flowers growing from the bottom left of a rectangular frame, on the bottom left of the block there is an unopened bud, and above the bud is one of the 2 flowers facing the left hand side of the frame, there is a large stem to the right of the bud with 2 leaves on the right side of the stem, and the stem leads to the larger flower facing the viewer and a series of buds surrounding it. The flowers feature petals with parallel wiggly lines. There is mild wavy vertical chatter in the negative space to the left of the carved image.
