Unique art papers were prepared, mark-making was explored and students incorporated textiles, stamps and stencils. Relief Reduction Printmaking – Instructor Margaret Doty In this course, students created “Reduction Prints” in linoleum. “Reduction” printing is a form of relief printmaking invented by Pablo Picasso. With this technique, the printing of multi-colors are printed from variations on the same block. One color is printed, the linoleum is cut away and the next color is applied. This process is continued until all colors are applied. Different papers and inking techniques were explored. Registration opens August 22.
