The Studio offers original, handmade linocut prints of various sizes.

Artwork features elements from myths and folklore, as well as nature, such as botanicals and wildlife.

And sometimes these prints are even available in Prussian Green ink!

✨Downloadable digital art is also offered for those who want a piece of art from the Studio but live somewhere we don’t currently ship physical products to.✨

✨ ✨ ✨

L’atelier propose des linogravures originales, faites à la main, de différentes grandeurs.

Les œuvres affichent des éléments tirés des mythes, du folklore, ainsi que de la nature (tels que la flore et la faune).

Ces linogravures sont parfois aussi disponibles à l’encre Vert de Prusse!

✨Veuillez noter que des œuvres d’art numériques téléchargeables sont également disponibles à ceux qui souhaitent une œuvre d’art de l’atelier, mais qui vivent dans un endroit où nous n’expédions pas actuellement de produits physiques.✨

International Print Exchange: Birds & Blooms

The Makers Studio in Australia organized an international print exchange for 2024, with an exhibition in 2025. Here is the process for creating my limited edition “Blue Jay & Trilliums” prints as well as the prints received from various printmakers from around the world.

Adventures in Printmaking

This is a continuous series of blog posts to document my printmaking journey, focusing on how I create my linocut prints and any other creative endeavour made in the Studio.

Portrait of Artist Larina Mietzker holding Sword and Flowers Linocut Print

Hi!

I’m Larina, a mixed media artist and printmaker based in Ontario, Canada. I draw, paint and print art inspired by the flora and fauna that surrounds the studio.

Bonjour!

Moi, c’est Larina! Je suis artiste en techniques mixtes et graveuse basée en Ontario, au Canada. Je dessine, peins et imprime des œuvres qui s'inspirent de la flore et de la faune qui entourent mon atelier.

 

What colour is Prussian green? Never heard of it!

Prussian green is made when Prussian blue (the first synthetically made colour) is mixed with gold or a golden yellow (such as ochre). Think shades of green found in forests, with sunlight shimmering through the foliage.


Mais qu’est-ce que c’est du vert de Prusse? J’en ai jamais entendu parler !

Le vert de Prusse est obtenu en mélangeant le bleu de Prusse (la première couleur synthétique) avec de l'or ou un jaune d'or (comme l'ocre). Pensez aux nuances de vert que l'on trouve dans les forêts, avec la lumière du soleil qui scintille à travers le feuillage.
