2. Consider Goals of Practice Linoprint
Consider the objectives of this lesson. One objective is to learn
the properties of lino block carving and printing.
Completing a practice Linocut will help you discover that.
..1.. what you carve away will not print so it is like drawing in reverse
..2.. your image will be flipped when you print it
..3.. you can create different values similarly to how you create different
..values when you use cross-hatching or stippling in a drawing.
..4... lines and shapes will print larger than they appear on the lino block
..5... you must NEVER CUT TOWARDS your HAND!
3. Avoid Injury
3. Avoid Injury
1. NEVER CUT TOWARDS your HAND!
.
2. Always be aware of where your hand that isn't carving is
.
3. Exchange a dull blade for a fresh sharp one when needed
- dull blades require more force which can lead to slipping and injury
.
4. Always secure your work with a bench hook
4. Draw Practice Lino Block Design
4. Draw Practice Lino Block Design
1. Outline the shape of the small lino block onto
a piece of copy paper.
2. Include your name and period on it.
.
3. Sketch a simple design of 4 - 6 shapes.
(Remember, if you choose to do lettering you must draw it flipped)
.
4. Fill the shapes with quick sketches of different textures/patterns.
.
5. Redraw your design carefully onto your Lino Block & make
changes as you wish
5. Carving Supplies & Materials Management
5. Carving Supplies & Materials Management
1. Learn your number on the class roster - use only the gouge with
the same number. Get your gouge from who ever is assigned to
be your supply captain.
.
2. Keep track of your gouge blades and make sure all 6 of them
are either stored inside the handle or attached and ready to use
at the end of each period.
.
3. Find and return Bench Hooks to the designated area
.
4. Dust off your table with a brush at the end of class.
6. Carve out Your Design
6. Carve out Your Design
1. Remember, NEVER CUT TOWARDS YOUR HAND!
Stabilize your block with a bench hook so you can
control your gouge with two hands when possible.
2. And what you carve away will not print - it will be white
.
3. Outline shapes first with small blade, use large blade next if needed.
.
4. Use large blade to carve out large areas.
.
5. Turn your block as needed and don't push into the end of a line.
.
6. If your blade keeps slipping, change it for a sharper one
- dull blades require more force which can lead to slipping and injury
.
7. Practice makes perfect - you'll get the hang of it!
