Siskin Linoprint

I have started a new ongoing project to print my favourite birds from the UK ( possibly elsewhere) in detailed linocuts.

I wanted to challenge myself with this project, so it is technically challenging as I am also printing them as multi block prints. Which means tight registration from separate block of lino carved to make the other layers of colour, yellow, green, for example. Something which I have not done before to such a high level of accuracy, and it took a long time to get right on this first print!

As I said though it is a learning experience for me as well as the chance to make some hopefully beautiful prints. They are for sale on my Etsy site, PrintPaintDrawMake and I will be donating a portion of the price of these to my local wildlife animal charity. Thanks for checking them out.
