Lino cut is a printmaking technique that involves carving images into a sheet of linoleum. Artists use special tools to remove areas of the linoleum, creating a raised surface that will hold ink. Once the design is carved, ink is applied to the surface, and paper is pressed against it to create a print. This method allows for bold, graphic images and is popular for its simplicity and versatility. The process of lino cutting can be done by hand or with the help of a printing press. It is often used in creating illustrations, posters, and fine art prints. The technique is accessible to beginners and can produce striking results with minimal materials.
