For this print making project we used a lot of layering. I started with a linoleum block and carved out anything that we wanted to be white. Then we ink over the block in the color we want, lighter colors first, and printed that on a piece of paper. then I washed off the linoleum block and carved out anything i wanted to stay the color that i just inked. then I washed off the linoleum block and inked it over with my next color and printed that directly on top of my first print. This process is then repeated until all the colors in the final print are done.
