I’m nearly there with this linocut- it’s been interesting working direct to the lino rather than making a drawing first. #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner #printexhibition

Thought I would set myself a @printfestulverston challenge to work directly drawing onto the lino with pen and inks. We live on an estuary and sometimes it’s hard to spot land from water..: #penandinkillustration #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

There we are - summer beach. This is one of my favourite local beaches - Rockcliffe- and a wonderful place for walking. #lauraboswell. #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

I’m done with the clouds now - they were painted onto the lino and cut around, printing with barely-there ink #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

"Played Out," alternatively titled "Intermission," a circa 1937-38 print by Philadelphia-based African-American artist Dox Thrash, one of most gifted printmakers in the US in the 20th century, whose work should be much better known. From current exhibition at Gonzaga University's Jundt Art Museum

Here’s an older mokuhanga print of mine - the texture is achieved by coating the paper with size several times to make it hard for the pigments to penetrate. This is a big print 78x34cm #makingajapanesewoodblockprint #mokuhanga #japanesewoodblock #waterbasedwoodblock #woodblockprinting #mokuhanga

A collection of ‘non-colours’ I create them with washes of transparent ink and by mixing colours I’ve used into colours I’m making. #lauraboswellprintmaker #lauraboswell#womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #printmaker #printmakerscorner
