ratty printing time

here is the start of my ratty printing. Here is my lino prints and my chop prints. i love lino, apart from the injuries you get when you slip, the prints, contrast and unexpected markings you get are just amazing. i did a few prints on a few different types of paper and these two are my favourite. the first one is just on normal smooth 120gsm sketchbook paper and the second one is on a vanilla artist paper. I like how the first one came out really strong and how the second one has a lovely gentle texture to it.




these are my best rat chop prints. the authentic red chinese oil based ink is quite sticky and thick and never really gives a strong print, but the black printing ink that i use for lino gives a really strong block print.
