heh thanks!

The skills!!!!

Beautiful work! I am in a band, and would love to make some hand-printed linocut shirts! I have some speedball ink, but I think it’s for using on paper. Is there a specific ink that won’t wash out in the laundry? Also, I see that you set your beautiful design with an iron! About how long should I apply the heat? Thank you for any advice for this novice!

Love it!

It would make sense to iron the t-shirt before stamping it. Also, I have read that you should wash the T-shirt first.

the ironing is not for the fabric, it's to set the ink

Awesome design. How long did you wait before heat setting?

I do dry it with hair-dryer before ironing. I have found that even if I will wait for ink to dry on it's own, after I will iron it it will get this blurry image. So: 1. Hair dryer. 2. Iron it through a sheet of paper. 3. Wear it. 4. Show to your friends what you have made :)

What pain do you used? Love the design.

hey what paint do you use? :) I tested a lot of paints and the effects are different ... I care about a paint that will be durable after repeated washing and covered as nicely as it is at your place.

Speedball Fabric Block Ink will last through repeated machine washings on a normal wash temperature after setting the ink . . . I have t-shirts that I have printed with the Speedball frabtic ink and worn for over 4 years with little or no color fading. I also dry the shirts in a regular clothes drier.😎

Do you think I can do this with oil-based colors on fabric? (ofc special for Lino prints)

@SalciusLinas

There has to be special medium for it. As I have experimented with medium for oil-based paint (DALER-ROWNEY Georgian block printing medium), I wasn't too satisfied after few washes, thou this medium works brilliant on the paper.

Hi great work. Where did you order your shirts from in bulk?

I usually dry it with hairdryer and after I print all batch I iron it through sheet of paper.

have a question. Can link printing be done on medium duck canvas and be archival? Should the canvas be primed with acrylic gesso? I have seen people use Lino block print for making handbags etc but not really seen in art. Also can India ink be used on a gessoes canvas or must the canvas be ungessoed. Your response and time is appreciated. And also my particular ink to use.

so i make woodblock and linoprints. most prints are printed on specialized paper like cotton using oil based inks. i don't think it would hold on a canvas very well. india ink isn't very viable for anything outside of staining. i use ink made from gamblin

@kyyomilo

perhaps you could use acrylic on canvas with block printing ? or if the paint is too thick and slippery for lino you could have a similar process using a screen print?

How do you clean or take care of Lino for you can use multiple times?

I literally just wash it with running water, if it happens that I be been lazy I would just use drop of dishwasher and rub it gently without using any hard material. And just let them try (but preventing lino being close to heater so it won't deform)

How many washes till quality drops? Just curious..

Can't asnwer that. This T-shirt is by this day still fine, thou I have printed the same linocut on totebag with same companies ink just different colour and quality have dropped in nearly "impossible to understand" state. I guess that's the trick to experiment with many inks and many fabrics and curing methods what works best for you!

Iron the shirt to set the ink if you don’t have a flash drier.

if i wash with soap the colour will be gone or it will stay

It will stay. It holds on for good amount of washes.

I hope you’re going to hand carry that bundle . . . 🤭

you didn't roll your brayer properly. do long strokes instead of going back and forth. it shouldn't make a sticky noise when applying. you had too much ink in one spot and that can lead to it filling in the gaps or overinking
