Artist's Comments

linoleum is kind of annoying to work with, but you get some interesting results.

this didn't turn out quite like i imagined, but it still works. there's not as much of his face 'lit' like i expected. and this isn't exactly what we were supposed to do, either, but i go off on tangents on my assignments and they let me anyway, haha. the face we chose was supposed to be realistic looking, and i suppose i went against my own grain.

printed on strathmore paper, 25% cottony soft. this is the first in a series of work i did in college.

yea carving does take a while to get used to, but it can also be about using the right tools, as the red handled ones are rather blunt and anoying!. great job with this print though!! nice one!>

hah, that's exactly what i've got, is the red handled one. this was my first shot at this sort of thing, though, so not bad, i guess. i have another that i carved, but i never got the chance to print with it.

thanks, though!
