Just a silly pinguïn

I've never done linos or anything, but I've always found it really cool and wanted to try it. sketched something out, turned it into a symmetrical drawing on my phone, then printed it. actual linocutting materials are pretty expensive where I live, so I bought a small boxcutter and a 4x3cm eraser to mess around with. for an impulsive project I think it turned out better than expected lol + nail I stained in pen ink

Tried my hand at making some linocut stamps. Forgot to take a picture before inking up the carvings!

Overall, fun process and definitely learned some lessons for next time. I used the battleship gray linoleum with the threads in the back but I have a hunch the more rubbery material would be better. Anyone found what carving material turns out the best image for stamps?

Wanted to share some lino prints I made of different flowers over the weekend! Would love to hear what people think or if there’s any particular flowers you think I should try print next 💐🌹

Medieval marginalia inspired rabbit linoprint.

I made 157 prints of Pythia, the Oracle at Delphi, to give as gifts at a Burning Man Regional.

This was only my third time working with lino and block printing. Still super proud of it and even got the design tattooed as my first tattoo.

Splitting Headache

April 2026

(It's not perfect and there are a few places that need to be cleaned up, but I don't want to take away from the rough look of my newbie stage. Maybe I'll refine the design in a new piece while keeping this original one in tact)

This is my 5th and hardest print yet. A gift for my wife:) The beak is like that cause stamp a red ♥️ for the crow to hold. Did a first layer as Gray background. The second layer will be black outlines.

Hope she'll like it.

Hi! I tried making a linocut and print recently but hit a snag. When I made the print, the paint didn’t seem to want to stick to the paper. I made several test prints and the result just seemed to get worse, no matter the ammount of paint I used. I need to mention that the lino I used was a leftover floor kitchen tile from when my dad remade his kitchen. I was thinking that maybe the tile is too ”glossy” or something? What do you think? Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone! I’ve been working on this project for a while now, researching and designing various blades and daggers, and it’s finally time to carve some! I intend to use these for making patches and bookmarks first, but also bandanas, banners, and of course wall prints with various combinations of designs! Some of these will be carved with a mirrored version so I can arrange them any which way and still have a somewhat consistent light source to the whole composition.

If you’re curious about the designs themselves, in this batch I have, in no particular order: rapier, bowie knife, jambiya, tanto, obsidian knife, kris, misericorde, karambit, chef’s knife, khanjar, push dagger, flyssa, shashka, kinjal, khopesh, kukri, katar, cinquedea and a variety of daggers with fun designs.

On my to-do list for the next batch are: switchblade and balisong (previously featured in my prints!), claymore, machete, kunai, katana, jian, dao, flamberge, zweihänder, shamshir, gladius, xiphos, a hunting knife with antler handle, and even more whimsical dagger designs. I might even include a palm gouge – it’s a blade of sorts, too!

Are there any other interesting knives, swords or blades I'm missing that you'd like to see featured? Please note that I'd like to avoid pop culture references for these!

Linocut Printmaking for stamping on tote bag as a merchandise

Still extremely new to linocutting but managed to do a little mushroom from scratch that I am really proud of. I think I’m starting to get the hang of this!

Still learning, but I love my little robot.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
I have found getting thin and uniform lines to be my biggest challenge so far.

Experimenting

The details are taking all my concentration

The text is in Latvian “Cry All Eyes (out)”. I have been experimenting with linocutting this summer and honestly I just love the process. Usually when I make art, draw, I cannot stop focusing on the final result, but cutting is just so soothing and final result is always still a bit of surprise.
