Reduction Linocut

[@mallbratgirl_3005]

wow! at first i was thinking ‘hm that candle drawing looks a bit simple’ and then the result absolutely stunned me!

[@jayitsme5306]

These tutorials are really good, nicely paced , straight forward and your voice is clear and enjoyable to listen to. Thank you

[@Handprinteduk]

Thanks Jay!

[@suebarnett-naturegazing]

Beautiful and very clearly demonstrated ❤

[@Handprinteduk]

Thank you! 😊

[@rosierosie291]

You have made this process SO clear, thank you.

[@Handprinteduk]

Thank you!

[@gayedavies2797]

I enjoyed listening as you speak slowly and clearly. I am a teacher and I know how important it is to pace new skills, show and explain each step by step. The other videos I have seen by you tubers, pack too much in. Now I see how you reveal new colours by taking out the previous colours. I couldn’t work it out and now I know. I want to do a face in the same way, so it will be a lot easier, as I see I need to take each colour out and print over from light to dark.

[@Handprinteduk]

Thank you, that's so kind of you to say. I come from a family of teachers so I must have learned something from them!

[@lauremeaney7883]

really cool, thank you for explaining this so simply and clearly. I am not sure my adhd brain can cope with the thinking needed for this, but I might just give it a try for giggles!

[@Handprinteduk]

Thanks for watching! Have a go if you fancy it - start with a simple design and go from there

[@maiabergersmith]

thank you so much for such a helpful tutorial and such a lovely final print, it looks really pretty and came out really well

Thank you for this video. I have not done this in over 10 years and this is an amazing tutorial.

[@prettyinpigment2969]

Very helpful and detailed. It’s my first time attempting a reduction print and your tutorial helped me feel ready.

[@IronEarthDesigns]

Thanks for the information. You were very clear, and slow enough to make this process makes sense. I also like the fact that you picked a really simple image to demonstrate this process. Thank you.

[@wonkylommiter6364]

I never fully understood what reduction printing meant, but this explains it very well, thank you!

[@Undiluted_Liquid]

Very helpful thanks! Ill make myself that little guide to ensure same print each time

[@Handprinteduk]

Happy to help!

[@mary_syl]

Beautiful! I still need to wrap my head around elimination prints

[@sallymalnar4625]

The colors are beautiful together, stunning! You are a perfect example that less is more!

[@Handprinteduk]

Thanks, Sally!

[@adriennekelley2991]

Great little simple but impressive demo of reduction. Keep up the good work Holly.

[@Handprinteduk]

Thank you Simone!

[@gillday6793]

Have decided to have a go at Lino printing and watched several of your videos which have really inspired me! Thank you! can’t wait to get started but have to wait for my Christmas presents!!

[@dorothywilliams7548]

A very good clear explanation for me as a beginner, I'm off to have a go and would recommend your videos to my friends in our art group. Thank you

[@tatim9165]

Thank you so much, wonderful explanation and art❤

[@steffd8822]

Awesome! Even as simple as your design is, the layers just make it turn out beautifully! I'm only a year into block printing so this is still waaaay down the road, maybe if even. Something fun to look forward to!

[@Handprinteduk]

It's easier than it looks! Have a go when you feel ready :)

[@hannahskoonberg]

This was a lovely video. Very clear and informative.

[@Handprinteduk]

Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed it

[@mvswaaij]

Such a good project for me to try reduction linocut. Still not easy, but luckily I could watch the video again and again while working on my candlestick and lught, Thanks a lot !

[@Handprinteduk]

Thank you so much for this! I’m an oil painter who is experimenting with linocut. This is super helpful!

[@Christianna73]

Thank-you!

[@sledding9606]

An excellent video. Thank you

[@martynlegg1042]

Brilliant!

[@mhd5826]

Fantastic! And from such a simple design, thankyou! Could you tell me the name of the registration set up you mentioned please? I could only catch....pins and tabs... lol

[@Handprinteduk]

They're called Ternes Burton pins and tabs: handprinted.co.uk/products/ternes-burton-registration-pins-pair?_pos=4&_sid=83f181156&_ss=r

[@jemm7337]

How long should you wait before printing another colour on top?

[@Handprinteduk]

The ink underneath should be dry ideally. With water-based inks this just takes 20 minutes or so, depending on the thickness of ink and the temperature. With oil-based inks this takes a few days or even a week or two.

[@valguilbert4925]

Can you use acrylic paint.

[@Handprinteduk]

Acrylic paint isn’t suitable for printing lino cuts. It will dry fast and stick to your plate, it will also not roll out as smooth as a block printing ink.

[@valguilbert4925]

Can you print straight onto cards

[@Handprinteduk]

You can, but cards tend to be quite stiff so it can be tricky to get a good print.

[@gracesimplified3860]

🤩

[@CherryBell-d5m]

Love this..check out 'Art in the corridor' who are delightful and putting reduction lino printing into practice on their narrowboat.

[@harlem4039]

👍👍👍👍👋☺

[@NursePhyllis]

8:41 I am going to try a version of this…is that wrong. Seems beginner friendly. Is that wrong? I will let you know how my version comes out. @zenbreeze

[@kentjensen4504]

Excellent!
