Multi-colour Lino print with simple registration!

THE MAKING OF CORNISH HEDGEROW:


Once i had cut the image i then decided on the parts of the image i wanted to be different colours. If you use the reduction technique then you can't reprint the image once you have cut and printed your final colour so for this Lino print i cut it in half as the foreground and the background were easy to separate. Firstly i used an uncut Lino to print a block background colour and then inked up one half of the Lino:
This is a simple method of creating multi-coloured prints without the need for complex registration techniques.  A great way to start when learning how to do a three colour lino print.
TA DAAA...
