Yes! The sublime Columbian in action at Swansea Print Workshop. Here’s a short video of this gorgeous antique Victorian printing press. I’ve been using it all week, printing the first colour of a set of 8 reduction linocut prints. I’ll cut the second layer away from the blocks early next week and then get back to the lovely Columbian to print colour 2. Enjoy it. I do.

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D View more posts

It’s always fascinating with those old “machines”.
They’re fabulous to work with
