This morning’s linocut: “There’s nothing wrong with you.”

Update: I printed my text on top of an old picture (from the thrift store). First time I’ve tried this…

    1. Thanks, Linda Sue!
      I’m surprised how much I’m liking printing – – why didn’t I do this earlier? It certainly helps that I have a bigger apartment – – and can dedicate the entire main room to art making – – currently there are prints drying all over the floor. I’m going to rig up some line and the clamps you gave me and at least get them up.

  3. Great adaptation of the paper from the thrift store! It adds a dimension to the print without distraction.

  4. in a way the printing on top modernizes or brings a new dimension to the vintage print that was popular at one point. as for not doing printing earlier, sometimes I think some art techniques come into our life when we are ready.
