- Shows the carving and printing process of four different reduction linoleum prints, each utilizing five colors. Offers helpful prints on registration of images on a press and keeping images clean through the printing process. The finished prints can also be viewed at www.tyrusclutter.com
I never would have thought to use the board on the latter prints. GENIUS! Thank you for this vid.
You have a great style, one that translates well into printmaking (in addition to illustrating). The fact that you're a believer is the icing on the cake. Well done. I looked all over youtube for tips on color progression, and your's was the only useful vid. Thank you!
Nice work, I appreciate the clear verbal instructions or discussion. I'm a bit dyslexic about block printing.
Nice, but it would be nice to see a close up of the finished prints...
They are all on my website www.tyrusclutter.com
Dude I love it! I love love love it! These sheeps are amazing!
Many yellow inks, in my experience, tend to be a bit more oily. If that is the case then in is more likely there will be slippage while printing. I used white with my yellow, so I did not have a problem. If you wanted to use a yellow straight from the tube then you may need to mix it with some magnesium carbonate powder. That will make the ink a bit tackier, preventing slippage and not really altering the color.
Nice job thanks for sharing. Do you wet the paper for printing ? Also what kind of inks do u use? Im working with water based inks and regular cheap paper cause im still learning but i get mad with the inking drying very fast and the paper wrinkling on the press.
I have used the wintergreen offset on many materials. If you look at other videos on this channel you'll see it use it to transfer text to large mural panels before I overpaint with acrylic. I also transfer to wood blocks with this method. The clarity of the image is contingent upon the slickness of the surface. Any toner based photocopy will work, but this does not work with ink jet prints.
Is there a reason to use 2 blankets, instead of just using one and increasing the pressure?
I guess there wouldn't be with these specific prints. I often dampen the paper before printing--even with this method--in which case one blanket is used as a sizing catcher and the other is a pusher blanket, against the roller.
nicely done! great video. :-)
Great job done.
Very well done
Many thanks for the clear explainations. On my press the print paper wants to slide on the block as it goes through, especialy when printing yellow mixes. It messes up the registration. Have you any sugestions?
Does the wintergreen oil work for only certain types of photocopies? Would it work (And I'll try this) to use it to apply a photocopy reversal to a piece of fired (bisqueware)clay? I was a printmaker in grad. school... and only used water based inks in the last 2 yrs to reduce my allergies to the intense smells of the oil based inks. I also did woodcut reduction prints, landscapes, cellos, etc. Your video is great. I am now a K-5 teacher - no longer K-12, and just did printing with third graders on styrofoam. They did wonderfully well with jungle prints.. and I think they could have handled a reduction print...with 2 colors.
What paper u suggest we should use on lino/xilo prints?
What paper do you use?
It was either Hosho or Masa (both Asian papers). I tend to think is was on the smooth side of the student grade Masa.
