Thanks twice for this. Firstly for showing that you too suffer from mishaps. Secondly for showing how to fix it effectively. Much appreciated.

Thanks for the video Laura. Very interesting and informative. Keep safe and stay well.

Thanks Laura, another great video. It is good to see how to fix things when they don't got to plan or accidents happen, as they do to us all. My light bulb moment was seeing you working with the pencil as you would sketching. I have always drawn my "design" out carefully in same width line and have trouble carving what I'd like to that little line. I have drawn all my life and now realise I should be using those skills when I draw on my lino prior to carving. Big opener for me, so thanks.

that's a really good point - lots of ways of marking up lino :)

Thanks very much Laura, so helpful to see you cutting - sequence and tools especially! Look forward to the next instalment.

Glad it was helpful - be nice to see it properly printed!

Hi Laura, do you use „Graphic Chemical, Tint Base Extender, #1911, 1 lb can „ when speaking about Extender ? This is the stuff I‘ve found so far in the. Netherlands. Thanks in advance Ulil.

I do use it for Water based prints - looks like toffee but works fine 🙂
