                            Reduction Printmaking With Linoleum

Printmaking is often defined by high-contrast, single-color images. A reduction print includes several colors. The artist carves away or “reduces” portions of a printing block, printing at intervals, one color at a time.

Reduction Linocut Prints

Reduction prints use the same linoleum block to print all of the colors in an image.

Reduction Linocut

The reduction lino cut is a method of block printing in which each colour layer is taken from the same                                                                                       block. More lino is removed from the block for each layer and each colour is printed on top of the last.                                                                                       This means that an entire edition must be printed in one go – once you have carved into the block for                                                                                       the next layer, you can’t go back to print more.
