  1. Hzzah! It is time to show off June’s #mailArt!!

    This was a super fun #linoCut to not only draw and carve, but i think i may have finally gotten down the proper ink thickness/consistency!

    I may be adding prints to the shop eventually, but not until after the heat breaks.

  3. Mushroom Mushroom!

    was trying something a little different with this one & drawing & then carving was a bit weird but it turned out really cool.

    will be listing the cards on ko-fi in the next week or so.

    {edit} cards now available in my Ko-fi shop! ko-fi.com/s/80d4afd19a

  9. Spent the evening making prints. Some are a bit old that i never got around to making proper prints of.

    I really need to work up a better drying technique… luckily I use fast drying water based ink.

    Individual photos coming eventually 😅

  15. November's #mailArt for supporters was a hand painted, mushroomy #linoprint!

    this one was especially fun to design, print, and then hand paint!

    (become a supporter and get mail art AND stickers every month! ko-fi.com/alien_sunset/tiers there's still time to get in on December's art!)

  17. not quite happy with how these came out - these are the best of the batch.

    I usually make small prints, so not has this problem before, but the water based ink seemed to be drying too quickly.

    I think i need to try the oil based ink next time, or add some drying retarder, I have some, but forgot to add any this time.

  21. more #blockPrint market research:

    I'm going to be making the plunge to printing on fabric to make my family some t-shirts.
    this meas I'll also be able to make things to sell like bags and patches.

    what kinds of fabrics do people prefer for printed patches?

  23. starting to get ideas for block prints that would make good shirts (& maybe bags?)

    but getting a bit nervous. if you screw up a t-shirt you can't just throw it away like a piece of paper.

    any advice from experienced printers?

  33. haven’t been able to pull out the printing supplies, but can’t stop carving & have ended up with a bit of a backlog…

    (Let’s not mention the drawings I still have to transfer, or the manuscripts bookmarked at the digital collections from the Bodlian, Morgan & British libraries & Walters art museum)

  37. possibly weird confession:

    I really like the smell of linoleum.
    the pink rubber linoleum substitute didn't really have much of a smell, and the grey was oddly...sweet, but wrong.

    but linoleum just smells...woody? and warm nice.

  39. When I’m stressed, I tend to hyper focus on something else to keep from freaking out.
    Last night i made a shit ton of prints from some new blocks i cut over the last week.

    Here’s a sneak peek until i can get the spoons to take good photos
