Linocut

Lesson Overview

For this lesson, we are going back to an old tutorial inspired by Japan that would be great for the Elementary age kids and up. Bare with the video as it was one of our first recordings! We may update it in the future but for now I think it goes over the basics of linocut!

Woodblock printing is so iconic in Japanese art. The detailed designs and multiple layered prints are so inspiring. The printing process was adopted as a means of mass production of prints. These gorgeous relief carvings portray the country and culture throughout history. In our video, we will discover linocut printing techniques and supplies for artists and families alike.
