Description:

For this swap lets make 20 ATC size relief prints. Carve a new one or use one of your old favorites. Use the same image for all 20 ATC's, but feel free to work into the print a bit and send out prints that are slightly different from each other. I love to lay washes on the paper and let them dry before printing or use colored pencils after the ink is dry. The example above is a print where I used color pencil after printing.

You will send out 1 ATC to each partner. Be sure to sign, date, and number your prints. And please please send out quality work that you would be happy to receive.

Newbies welcome with a filled out profile. Swappers with unexplained or recent 1's and 3's won't be accepted.

Happy swapping!

Hey swappers, i got a couple questions about the swap and I wanted to make things easier to understand...

The carving should be carved by you the artist, not a store bought stamp.

Materials that can be carved linoleum, easycut, really large erasers

Need a little more information about this swap.....what exactly do you do to create a relief print??? Never heard of these before.....

OlDonut 01/17/2012 #

Relief printmaking is a technique where you have a block that is carved to have raised and lowered surfaces, like a stamp. But here you will create your own carving and print it.

man I was hoping a bunch of people would join this at the last minute! I printed twenty cards already, with a couple extra... Oh well.

I feel the same way I was really hoping for 20 but it just didnt happen.:( I'm still excited to see everyone's art though, may the swapping begin!
