Magical Layers in Linocut
Magical Layers in Linocut
With Noreen Richards
Guest instructor Noreen Richards wowed us with her submission to our 10th Annual International Print Exhibition, as we had never seen such dreamy, soft focus images made with linoleum. When we discovered she lives here in Albuquerque, we asked her to give a special *never before offered* workshop to share her magical way of printmaking. To make reduction prints- also called “lost plate” prints- the artist carves into the plate for each layer of color- resulting in a plate that cannot be re-used. In this workshop, students will learn to create small reductive linocuts using Noreen’s technique and Caligo Safe Wash inks. Students will be exploring ways to be expressive and “dreamy” with the medium. Noreen will focus on achieving depth, working with transparency, and color selections as she guides students in their exploration of the medium. Some experience helpful, but not required.
