Imagine this...
A gorgeous balmy summer afternoon. You are sitting on a camping chair or blanket with a picnic of your favourite food and drinks, your family are around you. Behind you the sun is high in the sky and warming you nicely, on a glorious summer day. In front of you a group of professional actors are presenting a fantastic, hilarious and magical production of The Wind In The Willows.
Printing a linocut jigsaw style is an easy way to print a design in multiple colours. You cut the lino block into pieces, ink them up separately, then put the lino block back together to print.
Your tutor will guide you through designing an image for the jigsaw printing method. You will also be shown how to carve the lino block, apply the inks, and print it – both with our traditional Albion relief printing press, and burnishing by hand. You will be shown examples of lino prints made using this method, and advice on the kind of designs that work best.
