This tutorial will show you how to carve and print a linocut with several layers of color using simple and cheap tools.
Print available in our online shop: ateliersentoshop.tictail.com/
The design of the print is inspired by The Coral Cave, a watercolor adventure game set in Okinawa: ateliersento.com/thecoralcave/ - Фільми й анімація
My printmaking professor told us about artists who print with spoons as if they were a thing of the past! I was waiting for you to take everything over to a press and I honestly had my mind blown 😂. Not to mention the Sponge instead of a roller; you've inspired me.
We like linocut because it's a technique that allows you to work with really cheap tools!
There's many possibilities and you can experiment until you find the tools you like the most.
(Of course, if I had a press it would be faster and easier. One day, maybe...)
Wow, this is such a relief. Usually these tutorials suggest you'd have to buy enough equipment to start your own elementary school just to do a lino print but it really cheers me up you are achieving these wonderful results with a spoon and sponge. Keep up the great work!
Working with cheap tools is very important to us. It allows us to experiment a lot, even if we don't have lots of money.
this is stunning!!!!! i usually skip around videos like this because they never get to the point but every shot of this was beautiful, educational, succint, and had me captivated from start to finish. I also very much appreciate your use of cheap tools. keep up the incredible work!
Thanks a lot for your kind words! We put a lot of work in the editing so we really appreciate.
Working with cheap tools is also important for us. We're glad you liked it!
Exactly! A little gem of a demo. And it is so cheap for the tools I might just have a go once or twice. Just like knitting, it's something I have never tried and find rather fascinating.
Nice to see a video at normal speed and not in time lapse. Thank you.
Normal speed videos are very complicated to shoot and edit but there are more educational: you can see every movement. So it's worth the effort!
This is so therapeutic and so relaxing to watch. Thank you for the video, I also learned a lot watching it ^^
Thank you very much. We're glad you liked the video!
@@ateliersento this arts can make some foto?
I did a set of Lino prints for college and I had a mental breakdown half way through I dunno how I’m so relaxed by this video
Everything is stressfull when done in school. Linocut can be such a relaxing technique at home!
I can't believe you are using a spoon. A SPOON! You don't even have a professional tool set nor a printing press and it looks so epic! Even better then a lot of studio-made graphics. You, my Sir, are a master of this craft.
According to movies, the spoon is the best tool to escape a prison! You can also print lino with it. And I've even heard you can use it to eat!!! Is there anything that cannot be done with a spoon?!! :)
The print and the video itself are both so beautiful!
I imagine it must be difficult to visualize what should be on seperate layers.
This really inspired me to make my own linocut print, thank you!
Thanks a lot for your kind words.
I make several sketches to visualize the print and what should be separate layers.
Without sketches, it would be very difficult indeed!
I hope you'll have fun making your own linocut prints. It's a rewarding process!
This video is so spot on! The art is beautiful, and the editing is really pretty to watch as well! :) I'm going to have to use that spoon-rubbing technique to transfer my drawings, as currently I trace the lines individually. Should save me a lot of time so thank you. :D
I'm really glad if the video was helpful. And many thanks for your kind words!
Very clear explanation of the process - without even speaking a word. Pleasure to watch.
Thank you very much for your kind words!
Forget ASMR, this is the most soothing video I've ever seen
Ahah, thank you!
So much work for one little print... It's absolutely beautiful, though.
We have filmed one print in the video but we make at least 30 prints at the same time. So it's really worth the effort!
It's a great technique, we love it!
That's true. I guess once the Lino is carved you can make unlimited prints. By the way, I'm really looking forward to the game. You've done a wonderful job! :)
Thank you!
Fantastic video, I had no idea what the process even was but you explained it well!!
Thanks a lot!
The labels just made me smile
Thank you! We put too much work on these (but it was worth it, hehe)!
Thanks for showing your techniques
This video is so relaxing and aesthetically pleasing. I literally did not take my eyes off the screen once
Thank you! We're glad you liked it!
Woa, watching this video is a nice way to start into the morning. I am only screenprinting at the moment but this video made me think of trying lino cut again. Great, thanks!
Super print design! I also really loved the pace of you video editing and the gentle music you chose.
Thanks a lot for your kind words! We're glad you liked our video!
Love the style of this video! The music, angle and color. So relaxing and calm.
Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed the video.
Wow I really love this short documentation its so relaxing!
Thank you!
Such a great video!
Thank you!
I used to work with lino at my elementary school, seeing how it can be used (like you did right here) really made me have a lot of ideas to use lino in the future.
Came out great! And the colors are so vibrant
Thank you!
Atelier Sentô you’re welcome
Love the use of a sponge! It give such a wonderful dabbled painted effect. Very inspiring!
People usually use a roller but for small prints we find the sponge to be more appropriate.

Excellent reference. This has helped me greatly with regards to the transfer-to-block portion of printing. Great audio too!
We're really glad it helped you! Thank you for your message.
I just ordered some linocut materials and I’m so excited!! Thanks for the inspiration!!(:
That’s a great technique and you’re going to love it!
Great video, you can save yourself many hours by printing original image on paper and transfering that ink to the lino by laying image ink down on lino and painting back of paper with alcohol or water, leaving black image on lino
Thanks for the tip! We'll have to try that!
LaserJet print (not inkjet print) and nail polish remover (acetone) will do the trick as well.
I am just starting out with lino cutting and this video has been really useful. Thank you for posting it.
We're glad you found it useful. Good luck with learning lino cutting. It's a beautiful technique!
Impressive and unusual - which I find inspiring WELL DONE !!!
Thank you for your kind words!

@@ateliersento you're welcome! Thank you for sharing your artistic process!
This video is amazing!! Thank you for making it
You're welcome!
so beautiful video, love it
this is amazing!
Thank you!
I just watched it several times in a row because I found the working process to be just so mesmerizing. Even though I remember my first try doing lino being a pain in the ass, I guess I will retry it after this.
If you find lino difficult to carve, you can use rubber blocks instead.
It's very soft so it's easier to carve and give good results on small images.
Thanks for watching!
This is a very wonderful video, thank you ❤️
You’re welcome. Thanks for your kind words!
So, its basically like a stamp with extra steps. I like it
Yes, it's the same technique. Simple yet with endless possibilites.
The drawing is SO sweet (even in B/W)
Thank you! We’re glad you like it!
Brilliant tutorial xx
Thanks a lot!
This is SO. GOOD. Great design with minimal tools. And thank you for that sponge idea. I've been debating whether to buy a roller, but it seemed an unnecessary expense for a casual printmaker.
The sponge will do the job very well indeed. Thanks a lot for your kind words!
the spoon rub what a great idea!
Spoons are wonderful tools, hehe!
This is absolutely amazing. First time I see this technique using a sponge! I think I'm not patient enough for this right now but I would definitely try in the future. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks a lot! Don't hesitate to try this technique: it's very relaxing!
Beautiful and inspirational
Thank you!
Absolutely lovely.
Thank you!
Love it!! Simple and so cute. 👌 And I love your low tech process... 👍 You don't have to have expensive fancy tools to be a pro artist!!🙏😉 kind regards, Mary from Australia 🤗
Yes, that’s what we like with this technique: you can do incredible artworks with the most simple tools!
So relax
Merci à vous, c'est très intéressant de voir comment a été faite la linogravure que l'on a ! Toujours aussi agréable de vous suivre bon courage pour la suite :)
Merci beaucoup !
