We used a real leaf for this which was rolled a red and pressed against a Lino tile in green. Nice effect but not sure how reproducible it is.
This bird is a sgraffito attempt. Oil pastels are applied then painted over in black. A toothpick was used to scratch out a design which revealed the colour underneath. Jane also showed us how to print from a Lino cut but wisely provided a precut piece. I could just imagine the blood involved otherwise! Anyway this has sparked my imagination and I thought I'd attempt some Lino printing. Soon as I can get to an art shop....
