New Reduction Linocut – Pig In Corn

It’s been a while since I’ve made a reduction linocut, but this idea of a cute little piggy in a cornfield was stuck in my imagination, and I had to get it out.

this technique is fun, because it lets you make prints with more than one color–using just one block.

the final layer–all that’s left of the block is the black design

after printing each layer of color, I carve a little more from the block to create the next color’s layer. The process destroys the block as you work, making these kinds of prints a special limited edition. There’s no going back if you make a mistake or want to print more.

This print is an edition of 15. If you’d like to add one to your collection, click the image below for more details and information on how to order.
