Trying something old to get started...


I've been wanting to start printmaking again, but feel like I don't know how. It's been a couple years since I worked with the press.
 

We saw the art exhibit at the Seattle Art Museum, all women's work. 
There was one piece that was pages from a notebook, all simple drawings. 
 

This is probably the easiest way to make a print.... ink up the plate, put a piece of paper face down on the inked surface and draw. When you peel off the paper the lines show and a bunch of misc. ink also.
 


I like her  a lot. 
Did I mention I printed these on some old stationary and pages of a learn shorthand notebook?

Alice, you still there?
Linda? you too? 
I miss you both.
