Whether you are printing by hand on your kitchen table or on a press in a print studio, this book gets you started and goes on to explore the myriad creative applications of linocut. It encourages you to experiment with different approaches to image making and explores new ways of thinking about how linocut can be used. Nick Morley shares his experience and specialist knowledge to make this practical guide an essential companion for everyone interested in this addictive and absorbing medium.
- Detailed information on which tools to buy, where to find the best materials, and how to set up your working space
- Clear, step-by-step instructions to a series of projects that develop your techniques and ideas
- Over 300 colour illustrations, and profiles of eight international linocut practitioners provide insight and inspiration
" The cover photography is beautiful, and both cover and inner page paper stock are high quality, making this the kind of book that would be a perfect gift for someone interested in the subject. What I love about this book is how practical and useful it is. It's really obvious how much knowledge and practical experience Nick has, as well as being an incredible artist. This is definitely not like one of those celebrity chef cook books - it's about linocut first and foremost and is as excellent and as humble as the man himself. H Locke - Artist and Illustrator "
