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. 😊👍🏻
I was trying to figure out how to do a two colour Lino print, thank you for this, it gave me some helpful tips. Also your studio and video production are both gorgeous! Well done, Jesus loves you💗
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 :)
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!
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
I don’t know why my brain has NEVER processed to use a proofing print to TRANSFER THE IMAGE ONTO ANOTHER LINOLEUM BLOCK! Your video has opened my eyes to a new and wonderful method! Thank you!
Maarit, as a printmaker myself, since I have been watching you do your work I have been inspired to do mine. I would love to see what you are doing now. A fan from Puerto Rico.
Thank you! I've been more active on other social media lately but I'd like to start making TH-cam videos again. If you're subscribed to my channel, you won't miss out on new content
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.
Excellent video! And after watching it for the second time, I realized that the music was not off-putting :) Seriously, making a video like this is an art form in itself, requiring utmost restraint against "explaining".
Dear Maarit, your process was mesmerising and the print is so beautiful. It was good to watch you in action on TH-cam ( instead of Instagram and Fb where I follow)and very good for my students too. Thank you for such a professional video and your time and effort. Lu
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 :)
Satisfying, instructive, and inspiring! I’ve got my first little block here and I’m ready to mess up! 😂 Your video is helpful and makes me want to create. Thank you!
@@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 :)
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!
@@MaaritHanninen Yes, beautiful things can happen, if you just trust :) X. I make journals and books, a few little handmade stampings would be a nice little addition to the page decorations. I'm going to take a look at your other videos now!.
hallieshouse13 yea, handstamping would look great in them! I've even been thinking of making some sketchbooks like that. Best of luck with linocut, and with your craft!
Thanks!
Thank you very much David! 🙏❤️
Ah man the moment of pulling a print-- magical! I liked seeing your registration method, it's so simple and yet classy!
Jill C Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Every time you peel the paper back I swear it's magic.

Good luck to you x
@@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

I’ve purchased several of her projects including her newest triptych. Her artwork always draws attention.

I've been an artist for 40 years, and it's amazing how much I still don't know. Thanks and bravo.
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!
Yeah that's a nice little technique. Gives the perfect registration.
@@MaaritHanninen I'm going to try this as soon as my lino block arrive from Amazon!
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
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 :)

Thanks, so nice to hear :) Will try to start working on the next one soon.
My feeling too! I had never heard of the technique and I'm just mesmerised. Those designs are just incredible.
Lovely video. Thanks for sharing your process.
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
It's truly lovely and calming to see this process and of course the result was fantastic!
Thank you so much 😊
Amazing! So calming and super informative!
Tessax92 good to hear! Thank you!
The white border between the black and blue was a very nice touch.
Oh wow so you print on the other lino!!! Get it! Gorgeous work,
Beautiful video. I really enjoyed your learning your process, thank you so much for sharing.
Nice to see someone who does everything right - great job :D
Oh, you're too kind! I still learn so much every day.
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
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!
beautiful work and a joy to watch, love to see the process
Awesome! Thank you so much! :)
*Impressive skills.* Very different from the digital printing.
She could build a nice business around her prints. Good Luck wonderful artist !
Oh my god! This is so beautiful! The handwork and the result! 😭👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much 💕

Thank you so much! I'll give my camera man/editor your compliments 😊
wow! this is mesmerizing.
I don’t know why my brain has NEVER processed to use a proofing print to TRANSFER THE IMAGE ONTO ANOTHER LINOLEUM BLOCK!

Que lindo lo que haces! Muchas gracias por compartirlo con nosotrxs :)
So beautiful. Inspired!. I am going to use the kit I bought a while ago. Thank you!
hallieshouse13 that's how it was for me as well. I bought a kit and took me probably a year to try it for the first time. I got hooked immediately :)

Nice technique 😍
I loved your video and the final result is fantastic, very tidy, I hope you publish many more, thanks... greetings...
Superbe travail. Bravo.
