It's not screen printing, but here's a look at the process of making a limited edition linoleum block print poster.

Wow. What a labor of love that must be.

I think they call that a 'suicide' print.

Love the artistry that goes into this.  Have to admit, we are always looking at technology to increase efficiency, but it's not near as cool as this.

I've done this, as well as colored etchings on an intaglio press. Moved on to less labour intensive work. Still have the lino block cutting scar that runs right though my hand

I try to forget about the time a similar tool slipped and got me in the thigh!
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

Everyone here is impressed with the artistic nature of this print. We used to offset 15+ years ago but even then we used photopolymer plates. We did not have this kind of skill.
When you dig grave will you make it shallow so that I can feel the rain?

I dated an girl who's father owned an offset company.  Wasn't terribly different until they went direct to plate...that was a huge leap for them
