Reduction Lino Printing

 
 

Work with Associate Artist Heidi Sharp to unleash vibrant layers and captivating depth in your prints with the magic of Reduction Linocut.


How Does It Work?

  • Start with the lightest color: Carve away all areas that will NOT be printed in this first layer.

  • Print the first layer: Ink your block and print it onto your paper.

  • Carve again: Cut away more of the block to reveal the areas for your next color.

  • Print the second layer: Ink with your new color and print it over the first layer.

  • Repeat: Continue carving and printing each subsequent layer, working from light to dark, until your final image emerges.

Why Is Reduction Linocut So Special?

With luminous layers you can create stunning depth and dimension with overlapping colors. No two prints will ever be exactly alike! Embrace the exciting process of working in reverse and revealing your image layer by layer.
