Printing multiple colors from a single linoleum block? What kind of sorcery is this? Reduction block printing will have you thinking about image-making in new, mind-bending ways. Through a series of progressive carvings and press runs, the image emerges as the linoleum block is gradually destroyed. After a thorough explanation of the process, this workshop will cover the following: Choosing appropriate images for reduction printing. Transferring the image to the block. Selecting and using carving tools. Printing with the Vandercook cylinder press. Planning the color scheme. Overprinting techniques to create multiple colors. Visualizing the stages the print will go through as the reduction print continues. How to use this process at home (without a Vandercook). All levels. Letterpress studio.
