Studio blog: Robin reduction lino print

Here’s another three colour reduction lino print, which I completed this afternoon. Reduction lino printing is a way of creating a multicolour lino print, by carving and printing each layer of colour out of the same block of lino. There are only 8 of these in the edition, so these will be going out to family as this year’s Yuletide cards.

I’ll be running a workshop on how to create this lino print in November. This workshop won’t be suitable for beginners, unfortunately, but if you have done some lino printing before and would like to try your first steps in to reduction lino printing, this will be the class for you. I’ll be announcing my Christmas workshops here on the website on 8 October, so keep an eye out for them!

Here’s a quick video of the process of creating this robin print:
