A small press is used to produce linoblock prints.
The artist starts by carving a reverse image into a soft rubber lino block. The block is then inked using a small roller, called a brayer. Artist's inks or paints can be rolled onto the carved block.
A sheet of high quality paper is carefully laid on the inked surface of the block, which is then sandwiched in layers of newspaper or other padding. The "sandwich" is carefully fed through the press.
After being run through the press, the print is carefully removed from the block and examined by the artist. Some prints may be hand-colored by the artist after the ink has dried.
Perfect impressions are numbered and signed; unacceptable prints are destroyed.
