Mary Beth Shaw of Stencil Girl highlighted your wordle post on her monthly blog, congratulations you deserve the publicity, love your work!!!
Hi Janet, thanks for letting me know. I wasn't aware of Mary Beth or Stencil Girl. : )
Aha -- Thanks for going through your jig making method . . . Very helpful!
Hope it helps!!!
Great seeing another left hander with a knife 😁 THANK YOU 😊 super simple.
Your approaches are the best, Mark. I've learned so much by watching your videos!
that''s so kind, delighted you're getting lots from videos : )
Great video. I’ve been printing for the past year and your videos are so uncomplicated to follow. Good heads up on the paper supplier also ,thanks.
Inspiring. I did my first little 2" Lino block print, and can't wait to do more. I love finding ways to solve problems and make tools with things on hand. 2 color will be my next project. Thanks!
As always, a very interesting informative video. I admire your attention to detail and your endless variety of ideas.
Thanks Brygia : )
Hey! You could just come to DFW Texas and do a demo with ME!!! Ha-ha! I don't have filming equipment, but there are people here you could get for that.
I love the boots!
LOL! Texas a long from from east england!!!
So useful!!! Thanks for such a straight forward explanation of registration and a cheap way of achieving it - no special equipment needed, brilliant! I'll probably draw a wee arrow on the back of my pages, pointing towards the right angle card to prevent any chance of printing in the wrong direction☺️
: ) good tips, cheers.
it was the best register tutorial i ever watched i learned a lot thanks
So glad it was useful : )
Yeates, your videos are just great. Simple solutions, well explained. Thanks a lot 🙂
No need to spend money on the gelli art perfect placement tool 🤪 thx for showing us how to do it 🤩
there's always a homespun solution. No need to add more plastic to the world : ) x
Thanks for this. You're a true inspiration here. Great teacher too! All the best.
Excellent as always. This was just what I needed. Thank you.
No plroblem, a pleasure : )
Love it ! Thank you as usually for all tips and tricks !!!!
Enjoyed that - back into Lino again and will defo use your registration method - very clever idea
Always such good information! Thank you!
Excellent demo. As usual! And, not that I can afford much at all these days, but I am so happy to see your donation station ;-)
Thanks so much Alice, for the comments and support of donation : ) x
Clever printing. Beautiful, thank you!
Cheers Mieke :) :)
Wow… thanks for the great tricks.🎉
I have used some right angle mat board taken out of "thrift store art" to make registration jigs.
: ) we love home spun, much more rewarding!!!!
super - you are so full of great ideas!
Cheers, a pleasure to share them : )
Amazing Mark ! Huge thanks again 😊
: ) cheers Sandie. I need to get back to some lino...
Love this image!
Cheers, I enjoyed making this one : )
Brilliant video, thank you! x
Thanks for a great video.
A pleasure : )
So, you could also use the remaining reduction for the black layer on your gel plate ... wonderful and would love to see the series.
Cheers, I'll get round to a colour reduction rubbing soon. :)
Great tips!
Cheers Sa, hope they help : )
thanks for this video! can you describe your lino cleaning and drying process when changing colors for each reduction?
Just starting up in this great hobby! Really enjoyed your vid. Lovely narration and clear instructions. Wish me luck! Good luck with finishing your run? Sounds very interesting!
By the way, I also love the company "Handprinted" - great service and great range of printmaking supplies 👍
They're great - got a packet of love heart sweets packed in my last order! Alfreshco spray paint company take top prize though - you get loads of extra goodies in your order chocolate, stickers, line drawings of train carriages to design on... they sell great paint at great prices too!
@@yeatesmakes lol.... Oooooh.... Chocolate?! 🍫🤩
Dear Yeates Makes
Thank you for your advice! You are so helpful! and guess what? I have a friend in Australia (I am in Vancouver, Canada) and we were texting the other day when I mentioned I wanted to play with my gelli plate and her response was that she did also and really found the Yeates Makes TH-cam videos helpful! So, you are impacting makers around the world! Thank you for your generosity!
Question: I am covetting the really skinny roller your partner gave you! Do you know where it is from? or the brand?
Thank you,
Barb
Hi Barb, lovely comment thanks. I pinned a link to where the thin roller came from on my 'Big Gel plate - 1st impressions' video. Should be easy to find on the channel.
Still haven't got used to all these amazing comments from all over the world, YoutTube is a great way to get an encouraging community together : )
Brilliant - thankyou so much for the ‘registering’ tips. Does the calico ink dry quickly? TIA
Hi Tricia, a pleasure. printmaking can be a bit equipment intensive and costly so any tips to cut costs I am happy to share. Caligo ink dries pretty quickly - the second, third etc layers take longer obviously. just hang em on a line or tape the to cupboards for a couple of days and they'll be dry
Supercool :)
: )
Great short video, what Lino you are using, guessing it’s Japanese Lino? Happy new year to you.
Lino is just safe cut, really easy to cut but you don't get the delicacy and range of marks possible with hessian backed battleship stuff.
Really useful tips, thanks! I get really confused with reduction prints. Do you have any tips about how to work out the order that you cut away when you have your design worked out? I may be over thinking it but I normally end up making several plates instead.
The best way to start is with a 2 colour. Draw your design with clear areas of black, midtones and white. Carve away what you want white - print onto white paper in the colour you want the midtone. then carve away the midtone and print back over your print in black. Hope that makes sense : )
@@yeatesmakes Thanks. I'll try this.
Will this work on an etching press too?
Has anyone ever used this in the classroom setting? I'll have about 60 students doing reduction lino cuts and I'm wondering if every kid has to make their own registration or if I can reuse the registration for my different classes.
I do have a few questions. Did you do a series of this print, or just the one-off? If so, how many did you end up with in the end, and did you keep a "Progressive Suite" of your layers? (Get me! I'm learning about printmaking on TH-cam!)
I printed an edition of 10 from this, with a few 'proof' copies : )
Is there anything you do to prevent paint marks outside the borders of your print?
I guess just making sure you've reduced the block right down where you don't want marks then being really vigilant about clean fingers!!!!
Interesting!! Why is it called colour "reduction"?
LOL never mind - I figured it out...hadn't watched enough of the video when I asked.
