Lino Print

In class the pass few weeks our class has been working on Lino Print. Lino print is a peice of card which you carve away in a certain section. Thereore when you put ink on the lino and then place it on a surface only the places not engraved out will show the colour of the ink while the other spaces that a carved away will be left white. In a few weeks I will have finished mine.
