Sharing our love of linocut and printmaking with artists buyers and DIYers.
Hi, I'm Marika, the founder of Likelino, a platform for printmaking artists and enthusiasts. I started this business because I love linocut, a technique of carving and printing images from linoleum blocks. I wanted to share this passion with others and create a space where artists can showcase and sell their prints, either traditional or digital.
At Likelino, you can find a variety of linocut prints, from abstract patterns to realistic portraits, that can be turned into other decor items such as fabric, stickers, and embroidery. You can also join our workshops and community projects, where we teach you how to make your own linocut prints and help you express yourself creatively. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, you will find something to inspire you and spark your imagination.
