two color linoleum block print

Had a great time block printing my holiday cards this year and loved playing with different inking techniques.

Thought this texture created by reusing the ink from an already used block was pretty cool.

Sorry if I wasn’t able to mail you one. The project was subsidized by my mother with the agreement that the majority of them go to family.

Thanksgiving is my absolute favorite holiday of the year for the sheer fact that it forces us to do nothing but eat, drink, and hang out with family, but it’s also a reminder that there are two sides to every story, and the one we’re all accustomed to may not be the most realistic version. Check out this article deconstructing the myths behind the holiday and a suppressed speech from Wamsutta James to get you thinking.

But then get off the computer and go be grateful!
