Hello world!

Hi, welcome to my art world.  I hope you enjoy seeing my lino-cut prints.  I enjoy printing them in my studio. I print on mulberry paper or silk scarves.  I will add new designs and plan to show you those new ideas as soon as I create them.  Please feel free to comment or contact me.  You will find that often the prints are a little bit different than the one pictured, that is because I apply color differently every time I approach the fabric or paper. First, I start out with a blank piece of art linoleum. I carve out my design, often using a magnifying glass to create the fine detail found in many of my story blocks.  Once I have a design carved, I either use textile ink that is permanent to fabric or a water soluble ink that is applied to paper.  Everything is hand done.  You could say it is very “green” because no machines are used.  All inks are non-toxic.  I consider myself like a 14th century artisan, because I use the same methods they used when artists first started using wood blocks or stone prints.  I’m just a little bit modern with the use of Stemmed Rose fabric inks or block printing ink.  Jody Bare   PS: This is Solar Bloom scarf, Wave scarf & The Gathering print

Please feel free to comment or contact me. You will find that often the prints are a little bit different than the one pictured except the black and white prints are exactly as pictured. However, I apply color differently every time I approach the fabric or paper. Let me know what you think. Jody Bare
