My luggage tag combines many aspects of my art loves; linoleum carving (the airplane image is my own work), paper (i adore paper-source products and colors!), postage stamps (they have a unique quality, especially when used), washi tape (one of my new obsessions!) with cameras (taking photographs is entirely fulfilling), beautiful paper and delicious "souffle"…
I drew this little kitty with some beautiful glass bottles behind him. i transfered it to soft cut linoleum and carved it out using linoleum carving tools. I printed using a variety of colors of Speedball ink on Rives BFK paper.
After I drew and transfered this, I used Hankeshikun, a Japanese Eraser Block for Rubber Stamp Carving with traditional linoleum carving tools. I inked this using Speedball ink onto Rives BFK paper.
This is a relief print carved from soft cut using traditional linoleum carving tools. The print is printed using a brayer and speedball ink on white cardstock.
