This is such a great video and now I have something to share when people ask me questions about my lino process! Also, yessss, traditional oil inks clean up well with veggie oil and I went solvent-free with that tip when I got back into printmaking. It made printing at home so much more accessible, so highly recommend it. I follow up that cleaning with some simple dish soap with a degreaser in it to get all the veggie oil, easy peasy!
Just a little tip. For registration perhaps it would help if one uses double sided tape between rough (registration) paper and block. Thanks for such a clear explanation and demonstration. Very encouraging.
Great guide - the only thing I've never found a good solution to is transferring your design to the lino. If it is complicated, grey pencil lead on battleship grey lino is not ideal. I usually redraw it with a sharpie over the transferred pencil (as long as the tip isn't worn) or similar pen, especially as the graphite can deteriorate/disappear as you work on the lino. I know some people put a light wash of white paint over the lino and then transfer the pencil, but there may be a better method.
Going over the lines with a pigment fine liner also works really well, and you can get pens with very fine tips (0.05mm). It has to be a pigment fine liner though for the ink to stay where it needs to be, and allow a few seconds drying time as it can smudge otherwise.
Thank you for this very informative video, just what i was looking for
Brilliant well done Lisa, so clear
