Reduction Prints
Process - Planning
1. Plan a three color drawing (plus white). Something you like so much, you would like to have multiple copies!
2. Transfer the drawing as a contour to linoleum.
3. Paint in the three colors, directly onto the linoleum, with acrylic paint. Leave what will remain white paper as bare linoleum.
Process – creating prints
1. Cut away everything that will remain white.2. Print the linoleum with the lightest color. Print all
prints and extras.3. Cut away everything that will be the lightest color.4. Print on top of the previous prints with the middle
color.5. Cut away everything that will be the medium color.6. Print on top of the previous prints with the darkest
color.

Registration
• In order for colors to print directly on top of one another , we use a registration process
• The linoleum is placed in the center cut out and the paper is lined up with white corner lines.
You will need to print more than enough prints to allow for registration problems.
Color number two – darker green
Then cut away all of the dark green
Print Color Three
Cut away everything but color four.
•Print the forth, or last color on all prints.
•Often the last color is black
