Artist's Tip: Apply a thin, even layer of ink to your carved block using a brayer. Too much ink can fill fine details, while too little may produce uneven coverage. Experiment with different papers, ink thicknesses, and printing pressures to achieve your desired results.

Water-based inks generally offer convenient cleanup, while oil-based formulations often provide longer working times and rich, smooth impressions. Drying times and cleanup requirements vary by product.

Carve it. Ink it. Print it. Make it your own!
