A little experiment with a multicolor reduction lino print!

These two are the best prints, though the first is actually... edited! the real one was a blue print I did for fun that ende dup with good registration. Below you can also see a real red with bad regisration that still looks fun.

Did a relief printing experiment using golden slow drying acrylic paint on sketchbook paper. This ink was recommended to me by the art store guy which I suspect now is his recommendation to art students who need something in a pinch.

Consistency is way thinner than what I'm used to, and the drying time IS longer, but its still drying pretty fast. I actually think going for the feel of an ink causes me to under ink my block. I've been testing a wood mounted hard lino block and a rubber speedy carve block with a wood clam press. My best results were on the soft rubber, the hard lino I had to reink and hand burnish to get something nice but spotty. Even still, in a pinch, with a gun to my head, I would still pick this over any cheap speedball formulation. The detail is really good when I get the right pressure! I haven't tried speedball's oil inks yet, I have some kind of fabric and paper formulation that claims to be oil (Its the pack you get at michaels lol) which was uuuh pretty frustrating to use as far as drying time went. No shockers there.

I'm ordering some caligo oil ink soon which I'm hoping will solve a lot of my gripes. I think at some point I'll need to get bulk paper as well because that may be an additional issue beyond the typical skill grind it takes to learn.

It's fun though! I'm gonna keep at it.

I got a relief printing press and ive been messing around these past few days. These are my best results over two days. I've narrowed down my issue to just my ink which is good! That's a pretty easy fix.

I'll have a nice scan once I can borrow my work scanner HAHA... will probably also try to see if I can wrestly my terrible ink into giving me a nice print on the black layer tomorrow.
