Lino Chine Collé

£40

Please contact will except group bookings 6 spaces

Lino printing is a form of fine art printmaking where the printing plate is cut into lino. … The lino is then inked, a piece of paper placed over it, and then run through a printing press or pressure applied by hand to transfer the ink to the paper. The result, a linocut print.

Chine Collé is a technique that allows you to add colour to your prints without making another block. Using Chine Collé you are able to print on much finer, more delicate papers which are bonded onto a more sturdy paper during the printing process. Japanese papers are often used but you can try tissue papers,maps, sheet music, even fabric – anything delicate enough to be printed onto.
