Global Nature Beat is on a break for Christmas, so here is something a little different — some pictures I made after signing up for an evening class in printmaking.
Nice work, Mike. You have some serious talent for drawing - which I have none of - and it conveyed beautifully to printmaking. If you're interested in some great nature-based linocuts, you might like Sherrie York's work, which I highlighted a few weeks ago: https://jasonanthony.substack.com/p/the-patience-required. Thanks as always for your great work here on the nature beat. Happy New Year.
Thanks Margaret. What surprised me was how simple the techniques are - especially monoprinting, which I can now do at home very easily as there is no need for a press.
Wonderful!
Thanks Rena

Thanks for the link. Ms York's work is spectacular.
Thanks Jason. Sherrie York's prints are stunning. Some look like photographs at first glance. Thanks for sharing them.
These are great!
Thanks Sam!
I also studied printmaking, and your work is quite respectable.
Thanks for describing the different printmaking techniques. I learned a lot. Your drawings are amazing.
