Step-by-step guide on block printing (On Paper):
Linocut, also known as lino print, linoleum block print, or linoleum art, is a printmaking technique in which a sheet of linoleum (sometimes mounted on a wooden block) is used for a relief surface. A design is cut into the linoleum surface with a sharp knife, the raised (uncarved) areas representing a reversal (mirror image) of the parts to show printed. The linoleum sheet is inked with a special roller called a brayer, and then impressed onto paper or fabric. As a result, you’re left with a custom paper print.
If you’re new to print making or would like to know more about the process, continue reading below and we will instruct you through your lino print making experience. Not only will you create something beautiful, but also you’re bound to enjoy the undoubtedly methodical and meditative artistic process that is lino cut carving.
