Hand-Carved Rubber Stamps

Some hand-carved stamps and also impressions from some of the scraps left over after carving.

I love doing rubber stamps. I mainly carve animals. Here is a small  example. 

Salmon

I like your fish a lot! I carved a couple of fish but they aren't very realistic looking.

An eraser stamp I carved of Ray Johnson awhile back.

Hi Mark, good idea this group. I see if I can find pictures of my carvings. 

By the by, Sabrina's fish is superb but unrealistic ones could also be interesting. Let us see them Mark!  

Thank you two, Martha and Mark! And I agree with Martha. Non-realistic is also cool!

some quick carving on pencil erasers many years ago.

Some recent stamps I have been working on and collages to go with them!

Carved this quick fella today. 

Jenn, beautiful! Is it a cicada?

Sure is, Martha!

today’s additions... Yes (in American Sign Language) and a Praying Mantis Stamp 

loving all these latest posts. jenn that yes stamp is fantastic!

Thank you, William.

I have been using/drawing American Sign Language in my journals and on some Add + Pass the last few months so I figured I might as well start making some stamps of the same words. ;)

they turned out great jenn!
