I'm alive and have been exploring silver clay as a medium.. Have a tiny stingray

Silver Stingray pendant hanging from a silver chain around a pale human creatures neck

Polished stingray pendant held in a palm. Small circles and spots are visible on the stingrays fins that have been scoured in during the clay stage.

Stingrays belly, the loop is part of the structure and connects from the top of the ray to just below it's mouth. Details like gills have been added to the belly to reflect a real stingray.

Another angle of the stingray in a palm from above, its very cute

several drawings of a dragon-like critter with four arms. Each illustration shows a different form of the critter, based on fourleafisland's brush week art challenge.

I also made a small edition of spider and web alone. minouette.etsy.com/listing/4304... #linocut #printmaking

This is my 8”x10” linocut of a yellow garden spider, also known as a writing spider in its web against a green background. The yellow garden spider (Argiope aurantia) are quite lovely. The larger female spiders like this lady are striking with their yellow and black markings on their abdomen and their mainly white cephalothorax. They are 19-28 mm (0.20” - 0.35”) in body length so I have printed her more or less life sized, on her web with its distinctive feature, the zigzag stabilimentum, a telltale sign of this specific orb spider found from Canada to Columbia.

Once your blocks are carved it's time to do a test print, I find it's important to accidentally peel up one of your tabs and have to stick it back down and pray to god it's not too misaligned but god is rarely merciful :) #printpromptmonday #process #linocut #art #linoprint #printmaking

This is the stage where you procrastinate carving and get really anxious about it printing right

Shy (they/them) @chaotic-shy.bsky.social · 13/05/2025

The chickens are transferred to the blocks and now I need to think about what order I'm going to print them in, what details I want in which colours, how they will overlap and where I want to have my white/negative space #process #linocut

The carving on this tasty #invertefest inspired cicada lino is done! There's something so edible about the raw linoleum, I'll definitely frame some of my carvings when they get too worn for printing.. I'm really happy with this rotund boy and his big puppy eyes #linocut #printmaking #art #cicada

A linoblock stained with purple ink to highlight the carved out areas which are bright white. The carving is of the annual cicada from above with a geometric pattern reminiscent of Web/broken glass in the background, the pattern is made up of many diamond/kite shapes stretching outwards from the cicada.
