This was my first attempt at color layering and multi-block printing.

Each print took a lot of precisionβ€” with even inking & burnishing. But a little patience and trust in the process, the print tuned out to be magical πŸ§‘πŸ’™

This bird said: β€œno baggage, just sky.” πŸ•ŠοΈ
Soaring High is my new bird linocut print β€” carved, inked, and handprinted with care.
A little freedom, a lot of sky. 🌿

Sometimes I catch myself holding onto too much- little thoughts, worries, weights that make the day feel heavy.
When I was carving this bird, I kept thinking about what it means to let go and rise above them.

This Bright orange marigold lino print was made using the puzzle printing technique β€” carving the flower, cutting them into separate sections, inking each one, and then bringing them together for the final print.

A quick glimpse into the printing of these marigolds. It was so much fun to put together a puzzle, so I can print multiple colours in one go!

Tried printing this linocut in two different colorways and now I can't decide which one I like better!

Which one do you like better?

What started out as a landscape composition study sketch, turned into this print, a scene that would make me stop and stare.

Always a little nerve-wracking to pull that first print. But I think this one turned out okay.

A linocut work-in-progress setup on a table near a window. The photo shows a partially carved turquoise linoleum block featuring a landscape with trees and layered lines. Carving tools, lino shavings, and a mug with deer illustrations sit nearby. An iPad displays the original sketch of the scene, showing a tree-filled composition with a waterbody and distant hills.

Started carving this new linocut print today, based on a landscape composition study I did not too long ago.

Carved with coffee on the side and soft light coming in.

Quietly carving pretty leaves. There is something so soothing about the process of carving and the way your print starts taking shape.

There’s something magical about light passing through leaves β€” the way it leaves shifting shadows on the wall. With this lino print I wanted to capture that quiet feeling- A little bit of stillness, light and shadow

Hand-carved linocut print of a pine cone, printed in soft teal ink on cream-colored paper. The print features capturing the form of the pine cone, created using traditional block printing techniques.

I've been feeling drawn to natural forms lately. I carved this pinecone print by hand and inked it in a soft teal, just playing with shape and negative space. No plan, just making something for myself.

Favourite part of the process: Inking up a relief block
