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

MY FIRST GIVEAWAY !!!



I have decided to have a give away as a little early Christmas pressie and a thank you for adding yourselves as a follower to my blog .
I have been thinking about doing this for sometime now, here on my little o'l blog but didn't really know how to go about doing it .

I am thinking everyone already on my list of followers and anyone that adds themselves and leaves a comment on this post will go into the draw to win one of my teapot prints.
So when you leave your comment let me know which of the teapots you would most like to have and where it will live if you do win it, the last bit is just because I am a sticky beak!!!
hmm I think that sounds pretty fair ? yup!

You all have till midnight next Monday 26 October to enter and I will pull a winner out of Rubys new Loz & Dinny bonnet on Tuesday

So everyone remember to leave a comment to be in the running!!
