Lino Printing Lino printing is a type of fine art printmaking in which the plate is carved/cut into the surface of a block of lino. Lino printing has been popular for many years, and many people remember it from their schooldays. However, it is a versatile material and technique that can be used to create evocative and haunting prints.There are many reasons to choose lino printing to create designs and artworks, but the main reason is that it can be easily replicated at home. With just a block of lino, ink, roller and a wooden spoon you can create any design you want and at little cost.If you would like to try your hand at lino printing from home, why not have a look at my guide which offers insights into the process?

Monoprinting Monoprinting is a fine art printing technique that uses perspex or a sheet of glass covered in ink to transfer a design onto the chosen substrate. Each print can be unique or a variation on a theme; this techniques lends itself to abstract compositions using a combination of multiple artistic formats such as painting, lithography or etching.Monoprinting is particularly suited to those with an eye for detail, who also enjoy expressing themselves spontaneously. It only requires a few simple tools and materials so is very easy and inexpensive to try at home.The monoprinting guide on this site contains clear step by step instructions as well as a handy checklist of equipment required. I am always very happy to answer any queries you have about this technique either before or after you have given it a go!
