in this tutorial I'll show you three different methods for transferring a digital drawing to a piece of linoleum. from simple tracing with parchment paper and a pencil, to my favorite method that produces incredibly accurate transfers, ready to carve into -- i hope you like it!

QUESTION / SUGGESTION: For anyone who doesn’t have access to those remnant label sheets, might you want to try using an American product called “Freezer Paper”, made by Reynolds? It’s a plastic coated sheet of paper that comes on a fairly wide roll (18”? 20”?); I use it when I’m gluing up my greeting cards, or using inks; it wipes up pretty effectively, especially from glue r u n n e r s. Some inks stain the thing, but hasn’t made it unusable. Just a suggestion …

hi, i have tried to use freezer paper for this technique, but i couldnt get it to work unfortunately. but to use it as a work surface is clever, i will try that!

Thank you so much for this video. I follow a few other printmakers and a surprising many of them don't want to share this 'secret' of the trade- it took me a while to find out this was the method so many were using. Thank you to the video that taught you this, and thank you for passing it along for lino.

I guess when i say 'so many' i only mean 2 or 3 of the makers i follow. Many comments about 'how did you do that' that they never seem to want to answer.

I've asked around 8 to 10 and either got no answer, or told that they don't share their process. So, you aren't alone here. I've always shared with new artists how I do different things, so that I can save them the trial and error that I went through. I figure if I can save them some time & money then they will have more time and money for fun things. There is plenty of room for all of us to exist, especially since art is so personal for both the artist and patrons. Basically, just because I help someone learn how to use a vinyl cutting machine doesn't mean that they are going to make the same stuff that I make and if they do then it doesn't mean that their customers are only going to buy their stuff. I have 3 pieces of art that are in the same style from 3 different artists because I like that style and each piece on its own.

Hi! I finished my experiment with the acrylic medium and the photo paper. Success! The photo paper with the image printed from my inkjet printer, along with gloss varnish acrylic medium I was able to transfer the image successfully. I had to soak it for about a half an hour, and then rub the paper off as it became a softer. The modge podge with the image printed on regular computer paper did not work. Actually I'm not totally sure. It did not peel off well, but I did not soak it the way I soaked the photo paper and acrylic varnish. Anyway I'm really happy and just wanted to let you know. I've already started carving .

Hi, I'm just getting into lino printing and really enjoying it so invested in a laser printer so I could use this method of transferring the design onto the Lino block I followed the method exactly, but all I get is a very very very faint smear when I print it out. I have tried two different types of lable wallpaper. I have no idea what's causing the problem. It's a brand-new laser printer and like I said I've tried multiple different label paper types but the toner ink is just not transferring to them. I don't know if this is relevant, but i have kept playing around with it, and if I run a clean piece of normal paper through after trying the transfer paper it prints out a ghostly double image, so it seems to be keeping a copy of that last image inside itself somehow? help!

Great demo! I have a couple of questions. 1. How stable is the laser image on the sticker paper? I’ve done the inkjet on wax paper method and it’s very fragile and easily smears. 2. After you’ve transferred the image and cut the Lino, how does it accept the ink from the roller and transfer to the paper, considering the matte medium is still present on the bloc? Before carving I usually sand my Lino block to get it very smooth, with this method it seems there is still a layer of brushed on matte medium with brush marks, perhaps. Do you do any smoothing of the surface after carving?

@emilunderbjerg 2 жыл бұрын

thank you! the laser image is fragile on the sticker paper, you can scrape it off with a nail, and the printer itself leaves some marks as well. the matte medium itself is fine to leave on if it it's smooth, but brushmarks can become an issue. sanding the surface is a good idea to make sure it's smooth. i find it's less important when i print by hand, but i would for sure recommend it.

@emilunderbjerg Жыл бұрын

yes, i use acrobat DC when i print larger than A4 images - in it's print dialog there's an option to print to scale where it automatically slices the image and prints it on A4 sheets. i think you can wait as long as you like, the laser toner sits on top of the paper and doesnt harden or anything. unless you scratch it, i dont see why it shouldnt work even if you wait for a long time

im currently experimenting with a reduction linocut and multiblock print, using this transfer technique. so far i've had some success printing a grayscale image and transfering that. i've had to use varnish to preserve the transfer, because when cleaning the lino after a print i noticed that the transfer started to deteriorate. as for multiblock prints, i think you could skip the registration in the transfer phase, and simply register where you place the lino in relation to the paper when you get to printing, if that makes sense

@BobbySpiessVienna Ай бұрын

There are ways with inkjet, but slightly different, as far as I know. #1. Print on these label sheets, or other (transparent) non absorbant foil # 2. Go to lino, apply #3. Print your transfer like handprint linocut (folding bone, credit card ...etc) #4. Let it dry (1 hour min). I transfer like this also rubber carving block and wood. Main difference to Emil's process: You have to transfer as long as inkket-ink is moist - rather quickly. For bigger motives you'd have to go segment by segment, like oldschool grid method. For doing so, transparent foil has advantage here, as you can see the connection points. Hope that helps.
