I'm finally taking a printmaking course this quarter (something I've wanted to do since undergrad). This is my first attempt at a linocut print (carved linoleum inked and transferred to paper via a press). Got a little busy with the marks and it doesn't read as well as I had hoped, but I had a lot of fun with it and definitely want to try again in the future. I did feel a little restrained in that it was all line and difficult to convey any kind of grayscale and texture, but my class is doing monotypes next, which I've had a [very] little experience with and am looking forward to.
