Next linoleum project: double plates

Next linoleum project: double plates.
This was fun and quite challenging! I'm pretty happy with the results, though the first one to finish had an error.
I previously tried the puzzle method to print with two colours. That was really stressful too, where I had expected it'd be easier. Possibly because I used real linoleum for that. These are with linol -

@fanden Thank you


I do hope to make some more art in 2026, as I'll be taking time off from the day job. But lino is very new to me. Well.. Maybe that's what's making this so fun. Trying to figure out how it works coming from a pretty naive understanding

@BogWitch Just poke around at stuff that's fun to do, that's my approach
If it poses a question, ask a counter question, mess around and find out! -

Nice messes, some fine exploring going on

These are with linol@BogWitch det er sgu flot. Jeg kan ikke huske de forskellige teknikker. Er det noget med, at det hvor man snitter kommer der ikke farver? Hvordan kan man lave flerfarver på den måde? Jeg antager det er meget anderledes end at male, fordi man ridser snitter med en kniv? Eller hvordan?

@andreasio Ja det har du forstået rigtigt. De dele man snitter væk afsætter ingen farve - så der skinner papiret igennem.
For at lave et tryk med to farver kan man fx først lave en plade hvor alt det der ikke er rødt bliver skåret væk.
Så trykker man med det.
Derefter en plade hvor alt det der ikke er sort er skåret væk. Den trykker man ovenpå det røde tryk.
Det er det jeg har gjort her. Der findes flere andre teknikker
