Hi! My name is Katie Argyle and I’ve been really looking forward to May 2nd. I knew it’d be my time to get into my studio to print. I feel satisfied with what I made today. I completed a few projects to a stage where I can finally move forward to refining the process for better results.

I made two prints today. A small woodcut based on a local historical site called The Burr House where a print exchange I organized is now hanging. This print will be a component of something larger if it all works out.

Here’s my first block from today with the clothespin for scale.

I hand-printed an edition of 30.

Next an experiment with a new-to-me easy carve “lino”. I don’t enjoy carving this stuff, no resistance or feedback as I work it and I hate that the little bits do not crack off.

Hate that very much cause then I have to go back and cut them out.  I did like this design.

This is for a friend who has a band called The Manatee Band. I printed a t-shirt with this block as well today. A good printing day today.
