finally, we have kicked start on it. The photographs are taken as student-artists progress one step further into printmaking. The focus was on steps and process more than to strictly adhere to the principles of what accurately prints/editions.
the first two weeks was to practice images in reverse. This step is important because images printed off a linoleum
will be in reverse. To ensure images are the way you want it, it has to be drawn and carved in the reverse first.
Session 3 & 4 was craving onto Linoleum and create two monoprints: one using watersoluble pastels, the other with ink & roller.
Session 5 was to create an image in an Edition of 4. A placemat was made out recycable paper to help with alignment.
The key rule is to apply one colour per sheet of paper.
After printing four, student-artists carved out a little more linoleum and to be ready for the next round of printing. 
the print is completed
Session 6 begin with printing a second layer of colour, in set of 4.
And after, the linoleum was washed and dried, more parts were carved out.
A final layer of black ink is rolled and printed on the same set of paper.
