My favorite recent lino-cut endeavors

[elliott-artin]

finished prints of my stencil project for printmaking with variants and a collaborative piece as well using someone else’s stencil (ink and spray paint)

they read…

“don’t treat CATS like DOGS and they’ll probably like you”

and

“EXERCISE POSITIVE NIHILISM”, “nothing matters!”, “so go out there and LIVE”

I just wanted one (1) perfect color, but nooooo. Instead I got EVERY TINY VARIATION of tint, shade, and saturation I could possibly ever want of that color, without getting the only one I actually wanted. This isn't even all of my ink drawdowns, these are just the ones that didn't go in the bin

All that work, like about a literal HOUR of just mixing, testing, and re-adjusting inks, just so I could print 13 of these. That's it. That is all I wanted. It took 2 or 3 times longer than it should've.

2-color screen print design 😁

Top layer: "Summer Red" = 75% red, 15% maroon, 10% white

(pls tag me if you use this, I'd love to see it!)

stencils that look cool after printing with ink and spray paint for our first project this year! They read…

“don’t treat CATS like DOGS and they’ll probably like you”

and

“EXERCISE POSITIVE NIHILISM”, “nothing matters!”, [not pictured] “so go out there and LIVE”
