Ruby Victoria Letterpress & Printmaking: first sales on madeit .com

Welcome to Ruby Victoria Letterpress & printmaking

Here you will find photos of all my original hand carved linocut prints and letterpress printing.
A commercial printer by trade a printmaker by choice.
I specialize in original handcarved lino block prints with a bit of letterpress thrown in for good measure.
All printed on antique printing machines with that unmistakable bite into the paper that you can only get with letterpress printing

The work that I do is not created on a computer everything is hand drawn then hand carved out of lino then printed one impression at a time on my tabletop letterpress machine

I do not use polymer which limits me somewhat in regards to type but I love to use traditional methods in my printing that involve handset type and hand carved designs and I think this is what make my work totally Original and Unique to what other people are doing right now and it also meaning everything I make is an original work of art
I love what I do and love to share it with others that are interested

first sales on madeit .com

well I didn't think it was ever going to happen but it did!
I woke up this morning to find that I had finally sold some things on madeit.com, just in the nick of time too, I was seriously considering pulling the plug on it and just sticking with etsy.
I think I will stick with it a bit long now though.
