Linocuts have a long and esteemed history in book illustration and wall art. Lately I've discovered more and more handmade artists books featuring short text or poems accompanied by linocut prints. Designs can be intricately detailed or contain just a few lines.

If you're into paper or book arts of any type, open yet another door to additional creative possibilities. Check out Etsy or Pinterest to see what I mean. Then I hope you'll sign up for Linocut 101 with Joseph Vorgity on Saturday, March 8, 2014.
