LINOLEUM!

Last week I did something for the first time in my life:
I had an idea and in the same day did everything I needed to see that idea through. 
Sounds simple right? But think about it for a second, when was the last time you did that? 
My idea, was to take up a new hobby: linoleum carving and printing
Sounds a little weird, if you aren't familiar with it, but I can assure you that it is surprisingly calming while also intensely tedious. Something about that combination appeals to me.
Here are a few examples of my early attempts. Each took about 3-4 hours start to finish.
