Exploring Rubbings

 

See how Linda’s using rubbings to create frames and pattern in her sketchbook. She’s using 3D printed plates and mylar stencils with graphite and Derwent Inktense blocks which both provide great results. Read more about 3D printing the rubbing plates and get our files if you’d like to print your own copies using this link to take you to the blog.

Approximate run time: 18 minutes
