Subject: [Baren 42677] Latest prints and a query about the lino print
Send Message: To this poster

Greetings Bareners,

I have uploaded my latest prints to my web pages.

www.harryfrenchartworks.co.uk

The prints are experimental and non edition, but may be of interest to you.

I recently returned to my long term interest in the lino print and would
appreciate any comments to my query : Has the lino print a new status in
the 21st century? The reason I ask is that the lino print was regarded by
many as a print method to be used in schools. I am, of course, aware of the
20c artists who introduced lino printing and, like our own 1930's Grosvenor
School, can command up to 30,000 pounds for a print. It appears that (in UK) over
the past quarter of a century the craft has almost disappeared from the
school curriculum.

A new generation of the UK public seem now curious and interested about this
new (old) technique and do not associate it with school art.

Could the lino print now be, or has it always been on par with the woodcut,
or is that going too far!

Regards
Could

Harry

I just LOVE those kiosks, Harry! Sorry, though, I have no clue how lino will
fit into art history.

Maria, My prints were sent yesterday but when I went to the post office I learned that the stamp
I put on the envelope back to me is missing .25 cents. You probably have to add it or they'll
send it back to you. Sorry. Bea

Lacquer thinner will remove sharpie marks... be careful that it does
not dissolve the linoleum.
Do this outside to prevent inhaling the fumes.

Hi Georga,



I'm afraid you will have to deal with acetone; wear gloves if you are
sensitive and use outside if you can because of the fumes. It's cheap,
that's the good part.



If you don't want to use a solvent, you might try GoofOff or Goo-gone or one
of the acetone/citrus based cleaners for removing adhesive residues and such
things but they are tiny little bottles and rather expensive. Most of them
contain acetone anyway disguised in a citrus base. They are available at
home improvement stores or online or wally-world or .



Then you can wash the lino with mild detergent to get rid of the acetone
smell or the goo-gone oiliness.

Maria
