Delighted to have finished this little print in time for Printfest this coming weekend. #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner #printexhibition

Enjoying the misty distance in this print with some very layers #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner #printexhibition

Thank you!

Finished & now available - this is Estuary Flood Tide, a reduction linocut in ten layers from an initial ink drawing direct to lino. Details on my website www.lauraboswell.co.uk #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner #reductionlinocut

My finished linocut against the original acrylic ink drawing direct to the lino #dippenandink #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

Thank you!

I’m nearly there with this linocut- it’s been interesting working direct to the lino rather than making a drawing first. #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner #printexhibition

Thought I would set myself a @printfestulverston challenge to work directly drawing onto the lino with pen and inks. We live on an estuary and sometimes it’s hard to spot land from water..: #penandinkillustration #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

Not long to go now! Hope to see you there 3-4 May @printfestulverston #printexhibition #printfestival #printfestulverston #printfest #lauraboswellprintmaker

You could be when you visit!

There we are - summer beach. This is one of my favourite local beaches - Rockcliffe- and a wonderful place for walking. #lauraboswell. #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

What a pleasure to share @rheged_centre photos of the opening night of The Great Print Exhibition which now runs until 29th June. #rhegedprintexhibition #printexhibition #printgallery #lauraboswellprintmaker

Another couple of layers on my summer print of Rockcliffe Beach #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

I’m done with the clouds now - they were painted onto the lino and cut around, printing with barely-there ink #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint#printmakerscorner

Another layer of very thin ink to start adding depth. These are oil based inks #lauraboswell. #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #printmaker

Initial sketch and marked up lino block ready to cut (trad lino and acrylic inks) #lauraboswell. #womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #printmaker #printmakerscorner

Oh good to know! Thank you

Thank you for the introduction to this printmaker

Here’s an older mokuhanga print of mine - the texture is achieved by coating the paper with size several times to make it hard for the pigments to penetrate. This is a big print 78x34cm #makingajapanesewoodblockprint #mokuhanga #japanesewoodblock #waterbasedwoodblock #woodblockprinting #mokuhanga

Brass and woodblock print jewellery

Today I thought I’d share a little woodcut pendant I cut and inked to fit a brass frame Mr B made for me #woodblockjewellery #mokuhangamagic #woodcuts #lauraboswell#womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking

This is a caustic etched linocut ‘Waterfall’ on heavy handmade washi. It’s a reduction print combining layers of etching and cutting. #causticetching #caustic_soda #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #printmaker #womenprintmakers

Thought I’d make a mixed media piece from a sketch of our local headland #graphitedrawing #pencilsketch #landscapedrawing #designdrawing #womanartist #lauraboswell #scottishartist #scottishlandscape

Thank you for sharing

Very excited to be representing Kirkcudbright’s very own Printmaker’s Corner at The Borders Art Fair in Kelso alongside fellow printmaker @joshua_miles_artist this weekend. #joshuamiles #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #printmaker #printmakerscorner #printexhibition

A collection of ‘non-colours’ I create them with washes of transparent ink and by mixing colours I’ve used into colours I’m making. #lauraboswellprintmaker #lauraboswell#womeninprint #lauraboswellprintmaker #printmaking #linocut #linoprint #printmaker #printmakerscorner
