Hello, i am a linoengraver myself and i find this film doing justice to the work we must do in order to get just a few prints. Its great to see you doiing your art! And also i love the good camerawork and points of vieuw
glad you think so!
just discovered you on my friday night. got my wine and here we go. what a wonderful and delicate job, this is truly amazing :)
that sounds like a perfect way to watch! im glad you like it, thank you for being here :)
Nice, I was just enjoying this video sipping on my wine too!
At first, I thought it would be unimaginably tedious, but the close views of the cutting make it look really satisfying. And wow, thank you!
well it's a bit of both actually, haha!
Unbelievably impressed with your creativity, patience, and the result! Am about to do my first little linocut but this has changed my mind about how amazing this skill can be.
hope your linocut turned out well!
Not only are you a master lino printer (your patience is legendary), but you are an amazing videographer ! Lovely camera work and excellent sound quality. Thank you so much for sharing.
thank you so much donna!
why is this the best video i have seen lately?? just mindblowing
glad you like it!
Amazzzzzing! I was speechless from beginning to end. The dedication and determination are just commendable. And your camera angles where spot on. Thank you for sharing, I could watch this over and over.
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you for that overwhelmingly pleasant marker sound. Just music to my ears! xD
im glad you like the sounds! ive been trying to focus more on the audio side, but it's still a challenge for me to really capture the ASMR feel
Absolutely phenomenal...left me speechless. Just been watching it over & over again.
I'm glad you think so, thank you 😊
This was an amazing video. As I'm more interested in creating the textures of designs vs. literal trees or flowers or portraits, it was just what I needed to see. And realize that patience is not my strong suit so I'll need to adjust to get the effects I want. Ha! Ha! The answers to my questions are in the comments so I'll just say thank you very much!
This is an INSANE undertaking. it was a wonderful process to watch. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
So amazing to watch this done for such a large print! Loved watching your process. This definitely gave me the courage to try my hand at larger, more complicated pieces. I love the use of the acrylic at the beginning to help give you a better base to draw on.
im glad you found it inspiring!
Wow! Stunning. Congratulations on such a beautiful creation.
thank you so much!
Both a spontaneous and planned process. Incredible patience.
:)
Absolutely amazing.... love this so much. Thanks for sharing the whole process.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your work is truly beautiful!
Woooooooooow... this is just so beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
thank you, I'm glad you like it 😊
Those long border cuts so satisfying to view ha!
go right ahead :D
phew mad respect for the dedication! awesome job
Fabulous. I’ve just bought a press and the inks and lino should arrive soon. So pumped to begin the whole process after watching videos like yours.
sounds great, hope you have fun and make some great prints!
Wow !! Just wow😍😍!
this is great! i love it!!
This is so satisfying and relaxing to watch. Beautiful piece! :)

very nice work, the quality of time is everlasting in quality of workmanship. Enjoyed your video. thank you
thank you, i am glad you liked it :)
killin' my teeth, but I dig it!!
Absolutely wonderful...btw. Love the pastoral, calm theme :)
Glad you like it!
This is a hugely impressive piece of work. Funny, but it’s very relaxing just to watch the carving. Nice video production too. I love the sound of the paper lifting from the lino.
im glad you like it! i find the carving very relaxing as well :)
This is stunning ! What a beauty ! I'm so far from this .... But I hope that I shall progress on this way . Thank you for sharing. It's inspiring
im glad you like it! and good luck with your own work!
Can't describe how I love this,...the process, the final art... impressive.
thank you! I'm glad you like it 😊
I’ve made quite a few linocuts in my life but holy shit girl. I could never have this much patience! Beautiful piece!
haha, thank you :)
Lol damn girl... I mean guy. Hahaha
i'm 2 mins in and this is already amazing
So satisfying to watch!
glad you like it!
this is absolutely incredible
thank you!
Extraordinary! You make my day!

New to your channel and relatively new to lino carving. Your process is mesmerising. I'm in awe.
Glad to see you using the Pfeil tools. Love them.
Awesome, thank you!
so awesome to see this process Emil! love it!
hi diego! glad you like the video :D
@@emilunderbjerg yeah!! ill keep watching your videos while doing office work! great company!
cheers!
I am in awe 😱😍
Thanks for sharing your process! Gorgeousness!
I'm glad you like it!
@@emilunderbjerg Mesmerizing!!! (Every step.)
awesome!
I made a similar woodcut some years ago but not as big and cool as yours!
Awesome artist!!!
Virkelig fantastisk 🤩 Er selv liige begyndt at lege lidt med linoleumstryk og det er virkelig fedt at arbejde med - selvom selve print delen driller mig en del 😅 Du er jo bare sindssygt dygtig 🙌🏼😱 Er totalt blown away! Nu er det jo noget tid siden, men er totalt nysgerrig på hvor mange timer du brugte på at skære det ud 🙈
hej! tak for de fine ord, jeg håber du får styr på det! jeg husker desværre ikke hvor længe jeg har brugt på at skære
I love your work!
thank you!
so beautiful!
thank you!
Loved watching you create this piece it’s very calming to watch, do you find it meditative whilst your working I would imagine you do. I always find I zone out and the world disappears when the flow hits
i find it very meditative, for sure!
Linocut is perfect ASMR material.
haha, yes! i hope i can make my videos even more ASMR in the future, im still figuring out where to place the microphone and such :)
Wow! That is a lot of work. Looks incredible though
thank you, I'm glad you like it!
Amazing!!! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
thank you so much!
Love it
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL....:)
thank you 😊
wow
you are so amazingg
you did it best :D
thank you 😊
Amazing work.
thank you!
Insane 👏💯
such a good idea about taping your ink tube!
Amazing!!!🖤🖤🖤💥💥
thank you!
This was absolutely incredible to watch from start to finish! Each section was its own kind of satisfying, the freehand whorls and the sound of the marker, the ink mixing, the many many prints, the carving, carving, carving! I was enthralled. And thank you for the multiple camera angles, so beautifully shot too! Very very pleasing, thanks for sharing the entire process with us! The ultimate piece is a mesmerising work of art.
I'm curious, I noticed you were cutting off/shaping the nib of your marker a couple times in the beginning, around 4:55 minutes. May I ask how you do it and why you find that helps? Thanks for answering so many questions in the comments too, it's been very helpful for a beginner like myself!
I'm so glad you like my work! the reason why i shape the tip of the pen is simply to make it thinner/sharper, it was getting a little too fuzzy for my liking 😊
IDOLAAAAAAAAAA
OMG! I am so in awe! Thank you for filming your creation! Love to have this! I will try to do linocut in the future as it is detail orientated, love detail and tedious work. thank you
thank you so much, i am glad like it!
Hipnótico ❤️
Oh this is fantastic to watch dear Aga! It is the first time I see a white liquid being applied bevor cutting in to the Lino. Makes much sense. Yep! Is it white paint or something a bit more special ?
thank you! yes simply while acrylic paint mixed with water ✨
@@emilunderbjerg Thank you so much Aga ; )
So much fun watching, and in particular taking a time for some tea! I love carving and sometimes really don't care if I print or not. I would appreciate if you could tell me the white liquid you brushed onto the linoleum prior to drawing. You Tube is terrific where I can see the art processes. Thank you hugely!
im glad you liked it! the white liquid simply white acrylic paint mixed with water
@@emilunderbjerg why do you put white acrylic?
just so it's easier for me to see the black lines from the marker 🙂
@@emilunderbjerg I think this is a great idea. It also allows you to see very well what is carved and what is not with the color change.
Fantastic work! Truely aweinspiering!
I've been looking for a new linoleum that can hold my details better, which kind do you use?
im glad you like my work!
i am not quite sure about the kind of lino, it's either called forbo or best, or maybe walton. i hope it helps :)
wow this is a crazy ambitious project to carve lol.
Great!!
thank you!
amazing ... mesmerizing
Well done🖐🏿😀🖐🏿
thank you!
Thanks so much for not add any background sound/jingles/music. Your linocut is so beautiful, very increadable.
I would like say: do you know J. Borges? He is a great woodcutting man from Brasil.
im glad you like it! i do not know j borges, ill check out his work!
Hello @@emilunderbjerg. I came back to refer to another great Brazilian woodcutter: Gilvan Samico. In my view, I see a similarity to his style. Consider researching it. As a departure I leave the link for this print:

I speak again: your artistic work is beautiful. You are a true printmaker!!!
thank you for sharing this artist with me, he has made some beautiful prints!
Very nice, I've always wondered about this type of art, Thank you!
I'm glad you liked it!
Loved your work💥💕... Can i know what is the board, paint, tools and materials you used to make such masterpiece
Beautiful work. Tedious 😵
It really is! but i like it ^_^
Beautifully done! What paper did you use, I usually use a Stonehenge but yours looked super light! Was it Japanese Ho-Sho?
thank you! it's Japanese kozo paper 🌿
Pleasant ASMR aswell
How many times did you end up hypnotizing yourself?
just once, but i've been hypnotized ever since... :p
Epic
Great artwork! Which part did you use "paperlike ipad screen protector " and " label release backing paper for the transfer"? Did you paint in white using liquitex gloss heavy gel? Thanks.
hi, for this project i didnt use those two products, ill remove them from the description ^_^
Does nyone know where can I source Lino of this size in India
Do you start your planning with the size of the paper and margins? I noticed you adjusted the print area later was that to fit it to the paper?
yes, exactly. i had originally planned a margin of only around 2 cm, but decided it would look better with a wider margin
Hello from Valencia, Spain, Congratulations on your work. Spectacular. I love it. I wanted to ask you, what kind of ink or white dye do you put on it before you start drawing? Thanks a lot
Thank you! Cheers! i paint some acrylic paint mixed with water on it before i start, makes it easier to see the lines from the marker
Hello , this is amazing ! what sort of paper do you use?
thank you! i use japanese kozo, around 100g/m2
Very nice, what is the transparent substance that you have mixed it with the ink?
it's called wiping compound tack reducer, it helps with the consistency of the ink :)
I'm transfixed :D
the zoom + the noise
amazing! can you tell me what kind and where i can get that linoleum? thank you!
i buy it from a place called Aart de Vos, but they only deliver in denmark im afraid
Hola desde Valencia, España, Enhorabuena por tu trabajo. Espectacular. Me encanta. Te quería preguntar, qué tipo de tinta o colorante blanco le pones antes de empezar a dibujar? Muchas gracias
hola, puso mas abajo que es un poco de pintura acrílica blanca mezclada con agua para ver mejor las líneas del marcador.
I am curious of what the white paint is to be able to draw on this and what mixes you are using? clear, white, red, black and blue? What that for color or is it a thickening or what? thank you!
i use white acrylic paint mixed with water 🙂
What kind of ink do you use? Love these videos, congrats
i use cranfield safewash relief inks :)
I love this! Why do you paint the watered down acrylic at start? What is the purpose of doing that? Thank you, great video
by painting it white its easier for me to see the black lines i draw because the linoleum is brown. glad you like the video :)
Also by doing this it’s much easier to see where you’ve taken from as it reveals a completely different colour so not only can you see your lines but salon the bits taken away =]
Beautiful print, but what an awful sound at the beginning... It makes me goosebumps, I had to lower the volume! :-)The carving process, otherwise, was a real pleasure to see! What a craftsmanship and patience! You could also try to use the tool (I don't know its name, maybe baren or something similar) used by Yukio-e printers to transfer the color from the linoleum to the paper, instead of using that sharp tool that can consume or put a hole in the paper.
haha, yes sorry about the sound in the beginning, i couldnt decide if it was nice or annoying ^^
i have tried a barren like that in the past, but it fell apart (maybe i didnt use it correctly). since this video ive sanded my tool i use so it doesnt have sharp edges, so now it's not such a problem as it used to be:)
❤ :)(: Teşekkürler Thank you
🔥💕👍
✨✨✨
how come you mix multiple colours in addition to the black? and whats that clear substance you added to the mix? im interested in printmaking so im curious :] your work is very nice
that's a great question! i like mixing in different colors in the black ink because it adds depth to it. even though you can't really see it, it makes the black more vibrant I'm a nice way. the clear substance is called wiping compound or tack reducer. it helps with the consistency of the ink. hope it helps!
@@emilunderbjerg ohhh i see ty!!!
dear Aga, just watched your video again and am even more fascinated by which ease you ink and print! The end result is spectacular! I wonder..., you did cut the Lino once the work (of cutting) was finished, right? Why do I see a black line going around the edges once printed ?
and another question if you please, ...is this floorlinoleum ? I have old dry linoleum and think of buying new one ; ))
i did cut it when i was done carving, but i made sure to leave an edge around the whole thing, so thats the black line you see :)
@@emilunderbjerg Ohh O, I unterstand. Thank you so much for getting back to me, greetings from Quebec ; )
amazing!! i’ve just started working with lino and i really enjoy it ! except i just finished carving it out and i completely forgot that it prints backwards so the writing is the wrong way! oh well i’ll just have to practice some more
great work!! :)
haha, ah yes, that has happened for me as well ^_^
what are those clear and white liquid thingy after the black ink o_O
one is called "wiping compund - tack reducer" it helps with the ink consistency, makes it easier to print. the other is just white ink, i like to put a small amount of a different color into my black, makes the color more rich i think
Beautiful work. What for Colour was the white one? Greetings from Switzerland
i mix the black ink with both a white ink and something called "wiping compound tack reducer" - it helps with the consistency of the ink :)
ASMR on OVERDRIVE.......YUMMMMMMMMMY
Hi,
May i know, what is type of liquid that you used on lino?
it is just white acrylic paint mixed with water ✨
I’m climbing up the walls with that marker squeak. X_X )
haha, sorry 😊
What linoleum did you use ? Great work !
its by forbo/best ✌️
