Britain's What's On Event Guide
Linocut Reduction Two-Day Workshop
This reduction linocut workshop takes place on consecutive Saturdays. It is aimed at people with some linocut experience (a general knowledge about the tools and materials used and some previous cutting and printing experience).
Reduction printing is a printmaking technique where multiple colours are printed on the same piece of paper using a single block of lino. The process involves progressively carving away more of the lino surface between each colour layer.
The workshop will teach you how to prepare an image for reduction lino printing: how to decide on the number and sequence of layers; how to transfer the image to lino and how to cut and print different coloured layers.
Your tutor will prepare a number of suitable images for you to work with, but you may bring some of your own images for inspiration. Each week will start with instructions and a demonstration of other artists' work to demonstrate the discussed techniques.
