TANGIBLE ABYSS | full linocut printmaking process

[@sillymanmcgee]

i feel like the more i grow as an artist, the more engaged i can get in process videos like this. a year ago i might’ve gotten bored watching this but now i’m finding it very interesting watching what you’re doing and what choices you’re making ! very awesome video, man.

[@amanitaeremita]

[@StanDew]

What are your brush settings, how do you get it to interact with past strokes and fill in the gaps with color?!

[@FoxAndHyde]

I'm halfway through and this is super relaxing, every cut, every shot and movement is so chill. Your workshop seems like a dream! I loved the macro shot used just for the camera too.

Thanks for sharing your process. How do you keep the ink fresh (not drying) while you print? I guess that, even if time lapsed, the process using the bone folder takes quite a bit of time. I am using water based inks and it is an issue to work fast enough to stop the ink drying...even while mixing it in between prints. Again, thanks for sharing your art process. As a newbie to linocut/print, I am learning lots.

[@emilunderbjerg]

i use cranfield safewash relief inks, they're oil-based and thus dries much slower. even though they're oil-based you can stil clean your inking surface, rollers etc with soap then water, or simply use wet wipes. i find water based inks dry too fast for my workflow.

[@berolinastrassmann]

@@emilunderbjerg Thanks for taking the time. Indeed, I have only ever used water based inks. I will give the Cranfield inks a try..

[@emilunderbjerg]

cranfield makes several types of ink, go for the safewash ones, they're very easy to work with

[@yaelkamah9785]

Also, water based inks don't give the same depth and shine to your prints. They are very flat and gouache like. Bcs oil based inks dry so slowly you can manipulate them more and also leave your work place to the following day. I also work with Safewash+ it's extender, as it is sometimes too condensed for my needs. The extender stretches' the ink'

[@mreboni]

Beautiful work. I noticed you use cranfield inks, but I was wondering what paper you use. Looks like shoji or awagami paper but wanted to check? If you wanted to do a reduction print, would the paper hold up?

[@emilunderbjerg]

thank you! i use kozo paper ✌️ the reduction prints I've made have all been on this paper and i think it works well

[@mariamalmuahiri7288]

enjoyed it very much

[@jonridley]

just discovering the channel and really enjoying the work. im thinking about doing some linocut but just a little curious re: your process. can you explain to me what kind of paper you use to transfer the drawing onto the lino, it seems to have a removable film you [peel off, looks useful. could you let me know what brand this is? PS i thin k i;; end up buying a pruint at some point, love the work and the time and care you put into editing this all together. i make the odd video of my music on KZbin and can appreciate the work and care you are clearly putting in here.

[@emilunderbjerg]

hi Jonathan, I'm glad you like my videos! I have another video on my channel where show in more detail how i transfer the drawing, let me send you the link!

Hi Emil. Nice video. What paper do you print on??

[@emilunderbjerg]

[@franceselizabethvanvelzen8555]

can you say the details for the lamp with magnifier that is being used please? very inspiring work, thanks.

[@emilunderbjerg]

i dont know what its called, i found it in the trash a couple of years ago, with a broken light bulb. i simply added a led strip to it instead of trying to find a new bulb.

[@franceselizabethvanvelzen8555]

also, what is the specific lino you use, appreciate your help

[@emilunderbjerg]

i actually don’t know what type it is, its the only type the art supply store where i shop sells
