About the Aurthor: Lino Prints

I will be making a concertina book that is (hopefully) screenprinted, to make the images for my screenprint I have made lino cuts of some components. A greatly long winded process of making prints in the end but I am hoping the amount of effort put in will translate into an obviously hand crafted end result.

I'm really enjoying a lot of the textures that are coming out of lino print and hope that I can transfer them into my screen-print positives too. I think the lino prints have a quality about them that resonates with Poe's work. As standalone pieces these aren't so great but as components to a bigger picture I think these are successful. 

I really like how the two colour black cat one came out, this was initially just a test but I thought if it came out well enough I could use it and save time on remaking pieces. The bricks are kind of messy but I really liken how the green ink still shows through the black - it suggests the story of the cat being bricked into the wall.
