About Linocut: The Art of Carving & Printing
Linocut is a relief printmaking technique that has captivated artists for over a century. Similar to woodcut, it involves carving into a block of linoleum, rolling ink across the raised surface, and pressing it onto paper to create bold, graphic prints.
A Brief History
-
20th Century Origins: Linocut became popular in the early 1900s when artists discovered linoleum was softer and easier to carve than wood.
-
Famous Artists: Renowned modernists such as Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse experimented with linocut to produce expressive, striking artworks.
-
Global Appeal: Today, linocut remains a beloved art form worldwide — prized for its simplicity, bold lines, and endless creative possibilities.
Why Linocut is Special
-
Accessible yet powerful: Even beginners can achieve dramatic, high-contrast designs.
-
Therapeutic & mindful: The slow, tactile process of carving and inking helps you disconnect and focus.
-
Endlessly versatile: Prints can be repeated, reimagined, and combined with colors, textures, or even layered patterns.
