Instructor: Holland Hardie

Reductive relief is a beautiful subset of relief printmaking that allows you to create multicolor images with a single block of wood or linoleum. You begin by carving out the very lightest parts of the image and printing it in a light ink color, like a pale grey or yellow. Then, you carve out the middle values from the same block as before, and print this over the first layer in a slightly darker color. This process is repeated as many times as desired, with darker ink on each layer. The resulting print has complex shading and a wide range of values, leading to dramatic and colorful prints.

In this workshop, participants will learn to:

  • use block cutting tools safely & successfully
  • plan out the various layers of a multicolor print
  • use a brayer to apply ink to a block
  • print the block using a printing press
  • use basic color theory & composition
  • register multi-layered prints
  • print a small edition of multilayered prints

This class relies on some previous knowledge of relief printmaking - in order to participate you must either take the preceding Intro to Relief class (January 29th), take a day of private instruction, or prove that you have previous experience working with linocut tools.
