Hand Carved Linocut Relief Print Art

Create convincing hand-carved relief prints, not digital drawings dressed up as woodcuts. This engine cuts every light area as a gouge mark with visible direction and taper, leaves the pale tones as bare paper rather than painted highlights, holds one flat colour with no midtones, and lets the roller texture and imperfect block edge show. Swap five variables to control the subject, the carving, the backdrop, the colour and the paper. Vertical 2:3 format.
