Event Details
Linocut Reduction Workshop with Ange Cooper
Workshops
This course is suitable for beginners and intermediate students wanting to achieve colour in a print through the process of Reduction Linocut Printmaking.
Reduction prints use the same piece of lino to print all the colours of an image. It generally includes several colours. The artist reduces portions of the lino, printing at intervals, one colour at a time. The process of cutting and printing continues for each additional colour until the final layer is printed. Students will select their own image, learn how to plan and decide on how many editions they would like of that particular image.

She works not only with the visual detail of a location but also the mood and atmosphere of a place.
