Introduction to Reduction Linoleum
Level: Beginner/Intermediate 2 Day Workshop $170. Includes all materials. Up to 5 participants This workshop runs 2 consecutive Saturdays
A linocut or linoleum print is a relief process print where the flat surface (relief surface) of the block or plate receives the ink that is then transferred to the paper. Any part of this surface that is gouged out or removed will not receive ink and therefore not print. This workshop is beginner to intermediate level for those who want to expand their one colour linocut experience to two or more colours using just one plate…..explained in detail on the Reduction Lino Process page.
Participants would benefit from having taken at least one previous printmaking workshop so that they are familiar with studio and etching press protocol.
