Printmaking 3




This week’s printmaking ( yes, I missed week 2 as I was at a lecture on historic bookbinding ) was linocut. This is a loose and crazy linocut of an orchid in Duthie Park Wonter Gardens, printed in varied coloured ink. 
Linocut is really relaxing as you just gouge the image out of a square of lino, ink it and then print. It is very physical, graphic and fun.
Next week is reductive linocut where you cut successive layers to print with different colours.
