Thanks!

[@MaaritHanninen]

Thank you very much David! 🙏❤️

[@jillc2700]

Ah man the moment of pulling a print-- magical! I liked seeing your registration method, it's so simple and yet classy!

[@MaaritHanninen]

Jill C Thanks! Glad you liked it!

[@AnnieTangerine8714]

Oh wow so you print on the other lino!!! Get it! Gorgeous work,

[@alangeorgebarstow]

Thank you for a wonderful video, Maarit. I am a young (just 71) artist now branching out into printmaking for the first time. I have to say that watching your videos and following how you do things makes it all very clear. It is all so very lucid and no commentary is required. I have learnt so much from your technique. Best wishes from Sweden. 😊👍🏻

[@MaaritHanninen]

Very happy to hear that the videos have helped you! Happy printmaking!

[@LoveJasmine348]

Good luck to you x

[@alangeorgebarstow]

@@LoveJasmine348 Thank you, Jasmine, for your lovely and wonderfully inspiring comment. It means so much to me. I'm sending you a (virtual) hug. 😘x

[@SheerStitchery]

I liked how you printed on the other block to allow you to carve exactly where you need to on the second block. Thanks for the tips!

[@MaaritHanninen]

Yeah that's a nice little technique. Gives the perfect registration.

[@SheerStitchery]

@@MaaritHanninen I'm going to try this as soon as my lino block arrive from Amazon!

[@nathanjohansen7169]

Every time you peel the paper back I swear it's magic.

[@afiyabeauchamp935]

Thank you so much for sharing. I've learned more about lino cutting and block printing from your videos than I have with instructional videos

[@MaaritHanninen]

Wow that's amazing to hear! Although my goal has never been to make tutorials, I want to show my process in a clear enough manner so that people can still follow what I'm doing. Glad to hear it's working :)

[@spiritualkid722]

this is truly magical. i must admit, i fell in love not only with your art but also with how aesthetically pleasing the process of creating it is captured. thanks so much for sharing, i can't get enough of your videos!

[@MaaritHanninen]

Thanks, so nice to hear :) Will try to start working on the next one soon.

[@geraldinel.2190]

My feeling too! I had never heard of the technique and I'm just mesmerised. Those designs are just incredible.

[@jomocheatham]

I've been an artist for 40 years, and it's amazing how much I still don't know. Thanks and bravo.

[@crabgal]

Just watching someone else make prints has taught me so many new techniques! I can't wait to try them out on my current work in progress

Awesome! Thank you so much! :)

In the process of making the linocut works she made an additional piece of art with the video

[@MaaritHanninen]

Thank you so much! I'll give my camera man/editor your compliments 😊

[@withastone]

It's truly lovely and calming to see this process and of course the result was fantastic!

[@MaaritHanninen]

Thank you so much 😊

Nice to see someone who does everything right - great job :D

[@MaaritHanninen]

Tessax92 good to hear! Thank you!

[@dougkelly6409]

Wow, I love your method. Maybe I'm a dunderhead but never thought of printing straight onto the second block as a template. Many people show creatively destroying their single block in phases, which never set right with me, or some other method. Thanks

[@KristineJDunn]

one of the most satisfying things I've ever seen TBH

[@epsospremium6088]

*Impressive skills.* Very different from the digital printing. She could build a nice business around her prints. Good Luck wonderful artist !

[@wonderingMoquito]

That so smart! I want to a lino cut with 4 colors. Didn't think to make a print to make a guide for the other blocks!

[@lizprint2011]

Lovely video. Thanks for sharing your process.

So beautifull design and superior skill level. Best linocuts i have seen so far. Great job 👍

Thank you for this video. I check it again today (I think the 1st time I checked it was like more than a year ago) after experimenting blockprinting, and now, I must say that when I see you work, it makes sense! More than when I was not used to the process myself. Thank you for showing us how to do a simple registration :)

[@katelenkowsky4351]

In reference to Linsey’s question to me about fabric inks, I have the same difficulties in coverage when printing on textiles. It takes a lot of ink and often requires lifting the print carefully in place and re-inking. The more texture, the more difficult. Like papers, fabrics absorb ink differently. When trying to cover large areas with solid color, I finally decided to work with the characteristics of the fabric, letting the weave come through where it wanted to. Even so, I always launder the fabric to remove any finishes to remove any finishes. The inks I use are all oil based relief inks, both Gamblin and Caligo. Gamblin makes one specifically for fabric called Drive By Black but it comes only in black and I haven’t tried it yet.

@@MaaritHanninen Ha, isn't it funny how we put things off?. Maybe, because we fear that we might 'fail'. That's how it is for me sometimes. It is very encouraging to be reminded that when we put our minds to things we can achieve anything :)

[@MaaritHanninen]

hallieshouse13 I couldn't agree with you more! Procrastination has always been my biggest obstacle, and it all comes down to being intimidated by the unknown outcome. I've been really pushing myself for the past 2 years, and hey, nothing bad has happened. Actually quite the opposite!
