Skullprinting Basics
This is the project I made in "Screenprinting Basics" class at Home Ec Workshop. I drew the image by hand then scanned it into the computer (converted using Adobe Streamline) and printed it out on an inkjet printer - the carbon in the ink creates the reaction with light that transfers the image to the screen. My skull came out brilliantly - I cannot wait to do more screenprinting!
If you'd like to take this class - which I personally endorse - sign up at Home Ec Workshop!

Handmade Halloween Lino-Cut Cards
Halloween – the very bestest, gruesomest, ghouliest time of year! These are prints from a series of Halloween themed linoleum blocks I created. The cards are available for purchase in my etsy shop - http://www.heatherlucille.etsy.com/
Little Punkin Widecrotch is a child (and skeeredy-cat) friendly design. Is he running from a bogey or too candy? Either way he has on fabu stripey tights.
Any self respecting fan of the spooking season knows all about The Raven. Birds in general = horrifying. Ravens in particular = pants pooping horror. Here you can see the carved lino block - and the printed card.
Dioes de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) also happens to be my birthday! This design was based on the colorful, delicate tissue paper flags hung in Mexico as part of the celebration.
Witchy Pooh-pie and her black cat fly in front of the full moon on an errand of mischief!
Mr. Beelzy loves to torment the souls of the damned with his pitchfork. Prick, prick, prick!
