I love carving food as much as I love carving flowers. This week’s entry is a simple crop, found worldwide, the humble corn-on-the-cob. This piece was carved from Japanese Vinyl lino and printed using my craft press (an Xcut Xpress), craft presses are the perfect home studio press, small but mighty enough to produce a clean print. When I design a linocut to print onto paper, rather than fabric, Japanese vinyl is my go to lino block. It shows fine lines and details beautifully, plus cleaning up is a cinch, perfect if you print open editions.
Every week I share a new piece of art with my email friends, the story behind the artwork and two things that helped me on my creative practice along the way. It's a short & sweet email filled with good things only. Try it!
