Lino Block Printing :)

Back to Printmaking

I wanted to make some fun block prints for an upcoming group show in October 2011. This is a 9" x 12" lino block being prepared for carving. I drew the image on the block and filled in all the areas I want to keep with black sharpie. The lighter areas (that expose the lino) will be carved out, that way when I apply the ink it will only touch the surfaces on which have not been carved.
