A little more information on block printing, for those who are curious:
Block prints, or relief prints, can be made in many ways. I use small tools called gouges to carve my drawing out of a soft rubber block. Some artists use linoleum or wood, which lasts longer but is harder to carve into. The image must be carved in reverse for the print to come out the right way.
After the stamp is carved, I use a brayer to roll ink onto my stamp in thin layers, lay it on the garment, and use my own body weight to transfer the print. The ink takes two weeks to dry before it is washed and shipped to you! <3
Block printing is a very fun and relatively easy method of printmaking that has been used by cultures all over the world for thousands of years. It is thought to have originated in China, and was made popular worldwide by the textile industry in India.
