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

I was in Love & Clutter the other day and Essie and I were gushing over your tags...they look great online, but fabulous in person. The images are so crisp and I love the way you torn the end of the paper. Gorgeous. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThank you rosie! the edges of the paper is actually the deckeled edge of the paper from the mould it is made in,this is how you know that the paper is completely handmade,it is a real feature this is why I love cotton rag paper so much.
