Class Experience
What is linocut? A linocut is a type of relief, or block print, and bears a lot of similarities to woodblock printing. Essentially, the artist carves an image into a linoleum (lino) block and what's left of the block is inked and printed.
This year we will work on different subjects, printmaking techniques to help build and discover your own print making journey!
