"Let Them Eat Kale"
8x10, linocut
2011

first edition of 5.


the finished project. queen elizabeth/marie antoinette mashup. something simple to ease back into the game. now i just need to find a cheaper way to procure linoleum. (p.s. don't mind the awkward scan)

GOD SELL THE QUEEN

 

finally bought a new set of carving tools so i was able to fix the outer part of the kale leaves. this is a scan of the woodblock. hoping to test print tomorrow when i have more energy!

WIP wednesday

test print for LET THEM EAT KALE.

hallowed bean thy name

another methlab monday printmaking mini-project. again - dedicated to coffee, but this time to the heavenly bean.

turns into..

 

definitely going to make bean-themed patches from these. i made a few on flowered patterned fabric. in the next few days i'm going to hit up a few coffeeshops and try to get my hands on some some burlap coffee sacks to cut up and print these and the coffee cups on.

coffee is my hot hot sex

methlab mondays prevail!

now with linocuts!

the linoleum, halfcut with a rough sketch.

i used chewed up pages from The Rebel by Albert Camus for testing prints. 2.5x3 inches. i might make patches from them.

wonderfully crafted in my new closet-craft-studio! i bought a desk of craigslist a few days ago and it fits perfect. so excited to get my crafton all night long.
