Recensioner i media

Would you like to learn linocut printing from an expert? Search Press has just the book for you! In Nature Imprinted, UK artist and author Jane Spink shepherds readers through the process of creating linocut blocks, and details how to use them to make lovely prints that reflect the beauty of the natural world. You'll learn to carve birds, flowers, leaves and more while building your skill set with each project. As Jane declares in the book's opening, I will never stop being amazed at the potential this process offers to create new ideas. From strong, simple and graphic, to the capacity for achieving the finest details, linocut printing is a wonderful technique for creating many, many different styles of artwork.She says you don't need to spend a lot to get started and suggests purchasing a simple kit... that's always welcome news when trying a new hobby. I found it interesting to read about the tools, inks and papers, and how to handle them. For example, pressing tools range from a simple wooden spoon to book presses, or printing and etching presses that can cost up to a hundred thousand dollars! Techniques are presented one by one and there is also a handy troubleshooting section. A template is included for each design. By the way, prints don't have to be black and white...vivid colors can be used too.  Enjoy a flipthrough video on the book's Amazon page where there are already 26 verified reviews. Each one is 5 stars - it doesn't get much better than that! Also, check out Jane Spink's website, Inky Dog Studio, and her very popular Instagram feed... she is @inkydogstudio.
