son of koi


This is carved on Blick Golden-Cut Linoleum - more difficult to carve than the Speedball Speedy cuts, but easier than traditional lino.

later dudes.

Elin, those koi blocks are so elegant! Which type of block do you prefer for carving?

I really look forward to viewing your excellent print-a-day series. It’s a terrific way (for viewer and artist) to remain mindful of passing time. But seriously, Elin - one a day? Might there come a day when you crank out seven and take the rest of the week off? That would be my temptation.
Brava and kudos to you.

More fabulous, fluid fishy art -- just lovely!

Hey...do you have to heat up this material?

Kim - I think I still like the Speedball Speedy-Cuts the best, but they're all good.

Maria - I'm going to try to do them one a day, since I said that's what I'd do! My problem so far has been that I've made several a day, because I keep not liking what I've made, so I make another. Yikes. I have to nip that in the bud.

Took - I didn't heat it up, and it's not too hard to cut. I'll try heating one and let you know how that works.

Thanks for the support and encouragement y'all!
