  • In this video I'll be showing you how I make a two-color linocut print using a simple registration jig. I will carve out a “key block”, use it to create my second color block, and make the two layers line up using just a few low-cost materials.
    This method can be adapted to printing with more than two blocks, and it can also be used with other printmaking techniques, such as woodcuts.

    Thank you for a wonderful video, Maarit. I am a young (just 71) artist now branching out into printmaking for the first time. I have to say that watching your videos and following how you do things makes it all very clear. It is all so very lucid and no commentary is required. I have learnt so much from your technique. Best wishes from Sweden. 😊👍🏻

    In reference to Linsey’s question to me about fabric inks, I have the same difficulties in coverage when printing on textiles. It takes a lot of ink and often requires lifting the print carefully in place and re-inking. The more texture, the more difficult. Like papers, fabrics absorb ink differently. When trying to cover large areas with solid color, I finally decided to work with the characteristics of the fabric, letting the weave come through where it wanted to. Even so, I always launder the fabric to remove any finishes to remove any finishes. The inks I use are all oil based relief inks, both Gamblin and Caligo. Gamblin makes one specifically for fabric called Drive By Black but it comes only in black and I haven’t tried it yet.

  • @lizday8140
    @lizday8140 Рік тому +7

    I'll bet you could make a nice, sturdy hinged frame for you to slide your papers into when you print, so that there would be less buckling when you flip it over your lino. Maybe like two of those large photo mats that you can sandwich your paper into. You could hinge those at the side and the openings would be ample to get your baren in and around for printing.
    I always think of that when I am printing on my gel plate, but I've yet to do it! I thought of alternatives, like perhaps lining the two frames with a rubberized surface so the paper doesn't go sliding and securing with binder or bulldog clips.
    I'd love to have a go at lino. I have been a "Jaqueline of all trades", as far as art goes. I would like to try it all before I die! Linocut/woodcut printing, sculpting, lampwork bead making/small-scale glass blowing and pottery are on my short list to dabble in. There are many more that I would tackle, if I live that long.

    • @lizday8140
      @lizday8140 Рік тому

      If I'm not clear, I mean those heavy card mats that go around photos or artwork inside the frame. You know the type, hopefully.
      I thought of how one keeps their embroidery linens taught while working cross stitch and needlepoint...working on an embroidery hoop.
      I don't think they make square ones, but it might be something similar with the photo mat set-up.
