What is block printing what is origin and growth?

== == Block printing is the art of printing with a plate made by carving an image into a block of...well, something. You can use a potato, a block of wood, a sheet of linoleum...the possibilities are endless. They've found examples of block print from Mesopotamia that date to 3000 BC. One very important advantage of block printing is that it can be done without a press. As far as growth...the scrapbooking movement made this process really take off over the last few years. Scrapbookers LOVE rubber stamps, which are a form of block printing. I also consider flexography to be a form of block printing--its plates have raised, reversed images just like a printing woodblock does--and flexo is going great guns. And people still carve printing blocks as a form of artistic expression...so block is safe as a printing process.

Do you have to remove old linoleum before putting down new vinyl tiles?

What is under the linoleum? If it is stuck down well, you can put new tiles on there once. However, if you get to "the bottom of things," you may be able to fill in any dips in the floor and correct any other issues that will make your vinyl tiles look even better. It will take elbow grease and a crowbar and some major adhesive remover to take off the linoleum, but it can be done. If you choose to tile over the linoleum, make sure it is super clean and free of any grease.

What happens in the cutting process of the linoleum printing?

After you've gotten your linoleum block for printing, take the drawing or photograph you want to make into a print and draw it with a pencil onto the linoleum. Remember that whatever you cut out in the next step will be where you can see the paper in the print. So, if you cut out a circle in the middle of the linoleum you will get a print of a hole, not a print of a circle. If this is your first time doing a linoleum printing, sometimes where you cut and where you don't can be confusing. In order to avoid this, after you get a basic sketch on the linoleum block color in darkly which parts should be colored with ink. Those dark parts are where you DO NOT cut. Once you are done with the drawing, get the linoleum cutters for the cutting. The cutters are necessary for cutting out your block. This is what they look like: http://snazzyjazzy.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/speedball-linoleum-cutters-gtl1006-de.jpg After you've gotten the tools, make sure you have something to push the top of your block against while you are cutting. If you don't do this, you are more likely to cut yourself. Always make sure, as well, to cut away from yourself. After you've cut out your print, take out the ink and get going! Have fun!
