Reduction Linocut – February

Weekend course
Saturday 23rd & Sunday 24th February 2019
11 – 5

£135

Join artist Scarlette Homeshaw for this immersive weekend course exploring the reduction method of lino printing.

Unlike traditional lino printing, reduction lino involves cutting away the surface of one lino block in stages and printing each stage, layer by layer, on top of the last, creating a multi-coloured, tonal print. Intricate detail can be achieved as well as bold abstract imagery, and the result can be as stylised and individual as the maker chooses.

Over the weekend you will develop a set of finished multi-layer lino prints as well as taking away with you the skills and knowledge to experiment with this highly adaptive technique. The course will cover each element of the process, from preparing your lino block, to carving, inking and printing, as well as registration methods and editioning your prints.
