Thanks ! this was great, i showed it to my year 7 students today before we started carving and it answered lots of their questions.
Super!
Love this
I did a similar design - I started with a lemon yellow and masked out the blue section - I pulled a yellow first layer with my whites carved out.
I then would unmask the blue section and masked my red section (which is yellow) and pulled a blue print
Now I’ve got a pure blue (cyan coloured actually) and a green mix of my lemon yellow and cyan blue - made a Jamaican lime colour from the cyan blue and lemon yellow
Now I pull the red section and mask my blue and green sections - I used a deep red colour which resulted in a red pushed toward the orange side of red as a result of red mixed with first layer lemon yellow.
Then I finish with my black outlines.
Voila … une maison extraordinaire
Thank you.
Thanks for the share! Glad it worked out!
This was the best and clearest presentation of the reduction method that I have come across. Kudos!
Muchos Gracias. Thanks for watching and responding! Appreciated. Sorry for the very late reply.
Thank you so much for explaining this! Your print is beautiful- its inspiring me to get out my linocut supplies from the art cupboard!♥
Gosh, thanks! You are so welcome! Yes, get making some art. I know how it is though. I have many materials sitting in a cupboard too.
that's a very nice print. Love the abstraction of the subject
Glad you like it! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!
Very neat!
Thanks for watching and responding! Appreciated. Sorry for the very late reply.
Excellent clear demo. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the comment.
Thank you 😊🙏👍
You're welcome 😊
I finally understand this, thank you! In my art class I’m doing prints for the first time so this was very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
That seems helpful. I may do that for my lino reduction project as well. Little by little by little.
Good luck! Thanks for responding and sorry for the late reply.
@@FrankCurkovic You're fine. I also graduated from college with two degrees: one in graphic design, and the other in fine arts. Currently, The Autism Society of Nc is helping me find a job related to working in animation/designs/creating cartoons.
Thanks Frank - very clear & helpful.

tracing paper is a hard way to get you image transfeered to you block
i perfer to take my image and make a xerox copy and tranfer that to the block you can get very complex images that way
Will look into it. Thanks for the response and sorry for the late reply.
Took me almost to the end to make the connection that, if you're doing multiple copies, you need to print them all in a sort of assembly line where all of the blue, then all of the red, then all of the green, then all of the black, get's printed before moving on to the next color. No room for mixup there.
You are correct. Some use a different lino piece for each layer too, similar to stamping.
Great job Frank. You did a great job and instructed me well in the field of Lino. My Lino art has become a lot better because of this demonstration. Also can you do more than three colours?
You can do as many colours as you want, but your layers may begin to get a little thick (also depending on the brand you use).
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Great demo. Thank you!
You are very welcome.
Nice and clear explanation :)
Thanks for watching and responding! Appreciated. Sorry for the late reply.
Thank you for taking the time to create this video, it is very informative. My question: what kind of marker do you use to go over the pencil marks on the lino that will not wash away when you wash off each printing ink? Does it interfere with the printing ink at all?
Hi, the marker should be a permanent marker like a Sharpie, not a water based one. The marker will not affect the print. Good luck!
Very nice final result, clear edges.
Could you plz explain the registration process, it looks like there is more than one print, according to how the image is placed on the paper?
Thank you!
I simply align the corners for each print pass.
great! I muss try it next weekend

thanks for the tutorial
You are welcome. Thanks for watching!
A question. One of the things I've heard about linocut is that you only get so many copies before the linoleum degrades too far to get a good print from the stamp. In your experience, how many could you get with a 4 + black print like this?
Hmm...the most I have tried is 20 and didn't have issues. I did wash the lino periodically to prevent build up.
So this means you can use it only one time? And you have to do many of the same?
That is correct.
@@FrankCurkovic that's right we, artist get to suffer in creativity and some times get to charge a decent price. nice work.
In this case where your blue is just one area and it's surrounded by white, would it make sense to only charge that section of the matrix? Or is it better to always charge the whole thing for some reason?
Oh I guess in this case you would need to whole surface inked in order to have an image that is easy to align with for your registration?
You could technically only ink the section you want. Your registration will still work as you are aligning the corners of the block, not the ink.
Great job,,,never done this,can't wait to try it, it looks confusing,can I use fluid acrylic?
It may work, I've never tried. May need to be careful of acrylic build up if it dries quickly. May be harder to wash.
Great video! Thanks for sharing. What is the name brand of the linoleum you used?
+Hannah Price Not sure which brand. It's bought locally here in Singapore. The cheapest we could find. If you have the budget, look into softoleum. Almost like craving into butter.
How do you clean the ink off the lino between each colour?
Simply wash it off with water.
Nice video, Thanks! I am a beginner, what kind of inks did you iuse, water- or oil- inks?
These were water based.
Or do many of the same stages?
Correct. If you want 10 copies, you will need to print 10x for each stage.
@Frank what editor did you use for your video?!
+Simon Friel-Shipway (simon32336) Simply used iMovie and recorded via my phone.
Cool!
My paper is always sticking to the Lino
It might be because it is too thin.
Thank you for your demonstration. Isn't it that you can make only ONE print with this method?
I make 5 copies at each stage of printing. You could make separate lino blocks for each colour if you wish, but it's not reductive printing then. On the plus side, you would be able to go back and make additional prints in the future if you wished.
What if you make 25 prints and then later decide you want more? Since the first three color areas have since been removed you can’t get them back.
Wouldn’t it be better to make 4 plates so you can print as many as you’d like? Just curious. :)
I did make 5 copies at each stage of printing. You could make separate lino blocks for each colour if you wish, but it's not reductive printing then. On the plus side, if you did use additional lino for each colour, you would be able to go back and make additional prints in the future if you wished.
Frank Curkovic thanks for the explanation! ❤️
Okay so if you were doing multiple prints would you instead of doing one, on each inking do multiple sheets at a time with each color. Because you are carving as you go, you can't go back and do it over again right. So if you wanted to do a limited edition of 25 prints you would have to do each color 25 times on different sheets.
Also why apply the blue to the whole panel and not just the section that was blue, it turned the green into a black and the red into a dark purplish red. Do you have to apply each color to the whole panel or something?
Couldn't you just ink the lino with all 4 colors and do the print in one shot. Apply blue ink to the blue part, red to the red part etc. Does anyone ever do that?
Correct. I did make 5 copies at each stage of printing. You could make separate lino blocks for each colour if you wish, but it's not reductive printing then. On the plus side, if you did use additional lino for each colour, you would be able to go back and make additional prints in the future if you wished.
I'm afraid that this entirely misses the point of reductive linocut. The process is best exemplified by Picasso's brilliant use of building exciting forms which are not fully realized until the final color. In fact, I am not aware of any other artist who has exploited and revealed the full genius of this technique.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! It was a video made to assist middle school art students.
Looks like a fun experiment but isn't the whole point of a print that you can make more than one copy? This method only allows for 1 print. Why not carve out 4 lino blocks (1 outline-black&white- and 3 colored)?
You are kind of correct. I did make 5 copies at each stage of printing. You could make separate lino blocks for each colour if you wish, but it's not reductive printing then. On the plus side, you would be able to go back and make additional prints in the future if you wished.
Goofy ahh art project
err...sure, why not?
