I recently posted about the Miniprint Cymru exhibition in Mostyn (gallery) in Llandudno, North Wales (see here) and here are the three linocuts I have on show there. They’re each 10 x 10 cm (about 4 x 4 inches). The top one, “Should Bill Get Some Bacon” is printed using the chine collé technique to get that golden colour in the background. The two “Heavy Metal Legs” linocuts are printed with black ink onto white paper. Each one has been produced in a small edition of 10, all handprinted by me. No AI, no mechanisation, just me, my hands and a few traditional tools.

The technique is chine collé which involved using thin, high quality coloured papers or foil to bring colour into prints, without using ink or paint. I used some lovely Indian paper made from recycled saris. You cut a piece of your coloured paper to the shape required and cover the back of it with Pritt stick glue or Nori paste, then place it onto your INKED block with the glue facing towards you. Then you put your printmaking paper on top and put it through a press. The pressure bonds the printmaking paper and the chine collé paper together and the ink prints over both perfectly. I used Cranfield Safewash Relief ink in black printed onto Hereford Book 145gsm paper.

Here’s a very useful teaching video from Handprinted UK that shows the process https://youtu.be/yE8IxmflhvE?si=JymBlg85Vy2Y1Z6H
Is the black and yellow cat print achived using black and yellow ink at the same time or is it a black print painted yellow afterwards ?
