- This video walks you through a two-block linocut project. I show how you can carve and register two carved images on one block and how to transfer a key image to the second/color block area. The video then quickly goes though showing edition printing of the two blocks together.

Your videos are the best on CZcams thank you so much from Sydney Australia :)
You are so nice! Thank you so much! Happy New Year!
Wonderful, thank you. I'm just starting out and this is just so super helpful !!
You're welcome! Happy Printing!
Learning so much from you Sarah. Thank you (-: Marion
beautiful work, thank you.
Thanks so much! Glad you found it informative!
Your videos have been wonderful! I wish I were close enough to take a class from you! I'm getting ready to buy some Cranfield Caligo Safewash in a few different colors--do you think buying the process colors (CYMK) (along with white and black) is the way to go to get started with color?
Thank you so much for your nice comments. I tend to work with color by getting primaries) (Yellow, Red, Blue, of course) and mixing them, rather than the more commercial CYMK colors, but that is personal preference. You could expand your color mixing by having more than one red, and one blue, etc., for instance a magenta and a napthol red, and a process blue and a phthalo blue. And, keep adding as you develop color preferences! Have fun!
Hi Sarah I have a question which I hope reaches you. I notice you use Liquid
Akua for printing. Can i use the intaglio ink as I have several of that type of ink instead
Hi Diane - You could use the Akua Intaglio, but it tends to bleed badly into the paper after a short time. They have discontinued that ink by the way. Yes, use what you have but realize that you would/could be making work that would compromise the archival or longevity of the prints.
What do you use for cleaning the lino?
