Art 2: Linoleum Block Printing
We do Linoleum Block Printing after Pen and Ink drawings because the mark making is similar - except instead of drawing in the darks (like in pen and ink) we leave the darks alone and cut out the whites.  It takes a bit to get the hang of that, but once you do, it works great!

Block Printing Video:  Watch this printing video demonstration.  I will also give you a demonstration, step by step, but sometimes it's good to see the big picture of what you 're creating.

Choose a subject matter that has good texture and contrast of darks and lights.  Here are some excellent block printing examples:

​Reflection Questions:
1) How do the pen and ink skills you used in the previous project translate to this project?
2) What were the most challenging parts of this printing process and why? 
3) What tip would you give to someone who is trying this for the first time?
