Prints

Linocut is a printing technique where a block of linoleum is cut away to create a picture. The parts cut away will appear white (or will allow an already-existent color to show through). To get multiple colors with one piece of linoleum, you have to first cut away your whites, print, then cut away whatever you don't want to be your next color, print, and so on.

Monoprinting is a printing technique where ink is applied to a flat surface such as a piece of glass and then brushed and/or scratched away to create lighter areas. It gives one or maybe two prints.

Horse linocut print

Wild Horse Print
Linocut


This is a linocut print that I've made. Linocuts are made by taking linocut board and carving out all of the areas of your print that you want to stay white. Then, ink is rolled over the carved piece, the piece is pressed onto your media, and your print is made!
