Block Printing Class - Tess Evans : Designer and Illustrator

Supplies for Linocut Block Printing Class
Class Supply list on Blick, FULL Print-at-Home Supply List on Blick
To print at home you'll also need: water soluble ink, a glass surface, and a soft rubber brayer
and / OR an ink pad (or see list above on Blick)
Extras: glass palette, baron, palette knife, spray bottle (even mist), and surprise: a LAZY SUSAN!
2-4 — 4'' x 5.5'' Linocut Blocks
I recommend Speedball Speedy Cut blocks (Tan Color)
These regularly sell out; but you can buy and easily cut down the larger block (also saves $!)

Carving Tool with 2+ blades
You really only need 2 blade heads: a small (V shaped) and a med-large gouge blade (U or V shaped)

Dick Blick wood bulb set
Paper
I find this lightweight printmaking paper gets the best transfer, 5’’x7’’ fits the 4’’x5.5’’ blocks perfectly or you can buy larger paper and cut down
