Work has been exhausting for the last couple of months, but now life has calmed down a little for a brief moments, I've done a few more carvings.

The small skull was done a few days ago, and the bat was carved today :) Still experimenting and practicing with techniques. Welcome feedback and advice!

Decided to do another quick round of testing this morning. Did some reading last night, and today I played with damp vs. dry fabric; building up the ink; using various amounts of ink; and using a heavy rolling pin vs. my spoon.

Conclusions

1. Heavy is gives the deepest result, but some fine detail is sacrificed.

2. Rolling pin moved the block too much.

3. Damp fabric seems to be neither here nor there.

4. A padded surface underneath is so-so.

Had my first play around with my new fabric inks. Mixed results and I need to practice more, but its a start. Any suggestions are very welcome.

The turquoise is Speedball Fabric Block printing ink, with a standard rubber roller, hand pressed.

The orange is a Speedball Fabric Screenprinting ink, with soft rubber roller (will be trying with a foam roller next, as yes, the consistency was much more runny and didn't roll well with a rubber roller).

Linoprinting!

Sat down today to play a little with my new lino and relief printing ink :D Did a tiny test carving into a bit of the lino I ordered. There are some differences in texture when cutting vs eraser rubber, so my test is a bit messy, but looking forward to playing with it more in future.

Then rolled out a little of the water based ink and made some printed using thr new tiny carving and my previous large Vash carving.

Full credit of course to @shelternmberone for their fantastic Vash artwork I've been practicing with <3

Work has been keeping me busy so no new carvings the past week or so, and I was meant to do some carving for a work project but I just wasn't feeling it. So I did a Barbie carving instead xD

I'll also be posting my carvings on my actualy art/crafty account ( @owlish-fun-crafts ) going forward, so that my carvings are easier to find, as opposed to getting lost amongst my main blog's ( @a-bit-of-owlish-fun )endless fandom garbage [affectionate].

I'll share my work carvings too once I do them, at least the ones that won't totally give away my workplace. I'll be hand stamping some retro wallpaper prints for a new exhibit display...
