Below is the test-proof of the Jacob Wrestling the Angel of the Lord lino-cut. I have also included a few pictures of the process. The block size is 9 5/8″ x 7 1/2″, printed with Graphic Chemical bone black etching ink, on BFK Rives 250g paper.
Finishing up the cutting.
Preparing to ink the block.
The proof next to the block on the press bed. I use a Wepplo etching press set very light pressure and using one blanket.
