This was an amazing video. As I'm more interested in creating the textures of designs vs. literal trees or flowers or portraits, it was just what I needed to see. And realize that patience is not my strong suit so I'll need to adjust to get the effects I want. Ha! Ha! The answers to my questions are in the comments so I'll just say thank you very much!
Not only are you a master lino printer (your patience is legendary), but you are an amazing videographer ! Lovely camera work and excellent sound quality. Thank you so much for sharing.

This was absolutely incredible to watch from start to finish! Each section was its own kind of satisfying, the freehand whorls and the sound of the marker, the ink mixing, the many many prints, the carving, carving, carving! I was enthralled. And thank you for the multiple camera angles, so beautifully shot too! Very very pleasing, thanks for sharing the entire process with us! The ultimate piece is a mesmerising work of art. I'm curious, I noticed you were cutting off/shaping the nib of your marker a couple times in the beginning, around 4:55 minutes. May I ask how you do it and why you find that helps? Thanks for answering so many questions in the comments too, it's been very helpful for a beginner like myself!

Beautiful print, but what an awful sound at the beginning... It makes me goosebumps, I had to lower the volume! :-)The carving process, otherwise, was a real pleasure to see! What a craftsmanship and patience! You could also try to use the tool (I don't know its name, maybe baren or something similar) used by Yukio-e printers to transfer the color from the linoleum to the paper, instead of using that sharp tool that can consume or put a hole in the paper.

haha, yes sorry about the sound in the beginning, i couldnt decide if it was nice or annoying ^^ i have tried a barren like that in the past, but it fell apart (maybe i didnt use it correctly). since this video ive sanded my tool i use so it doesnt have sharp edges, so now it's not such a problem as it used to be:)
