Heavy Body Artist Acrylic Paint, previously referred to as High
Viscosity, has a thick consistency for traditional art techniques using
brushes or knives, as well as for experimental, mixed media, collage
and printmaking applications. Impasto applications retain crisp brush
stroke and knife marks. Good surface drag provides excellent handling
and blending characteristics with increased open-working time. High
pigment load produces rich, brilliant, permanent colour.
This traditional easy-cut art-print lino is specially made for carving. Available in a variety of sizes and also pre-mounted onto 18mm fibreboard blocks, giving extra rigidity allowing the user to achieve consistent, flat prints.
Pigment info: PG36Series 34oz (118ml) squeeze bottleAkua Liquid Pigment was originally developed for monotype printmaking, but it can also used for other techniques such as Japanese woodcut and painting on paper. The Liquid Pigment contains no chalk, fillers dryers or polymers and the addition of honey give the colours a brilliant, vibrant appearance that dry with a luminous finish. It has a slow drying formula which will allow for an extended working time to create images on a monotype plate. It is thick in consistency which is perfect for both additive and reductive monotype techniques. It can be mixed into Akua Intaglio Inks or the Transparent Base to create new colours, it can also be printed on top or beneath Akua Intaglio inks for multi-plate overlays. All colours are lightfast. The Liquid Pigment is rolled directly onto the plate rather than transferring the ink from a separate slab, saving time and money. The pigment can easily be modified to adjust the sheen, thickness and transparency. It prints beautifully on dry paper as it stays wet on the plate, eliminating the need for prior soaking, blotting, flattening and drying. Where the paper will not stretch or shrink, this means that your print will be registered perfectly. The pigment cleans up easily with just water and a rag. As there are no suspension agents added, pigment can settle at the bottom of the bottle. There is a mixing ball enclosed in the squeeze bottle to allow you to easily mix the pigment.
Lino cutting is a relief printmaking process. The desired design is
cut in reverse into the surface of the block with lino cutting
tools. Once this process is complete, ink is applied to the raised
(that is, uncut) areas of the block using a roller/brayer. The
design can then be printed in a press or burnished by hand. This
Lino Cutting set includes four Flexcut blades of different shapes
and an interchangeable handle. To maintain these tools in good
condition, the set also includes an eleven-pocket tool-bag, a strop
and a polishing compound.

Cranfield Traditional Relief Ink is formulated from a careful mix of traditional linseed oils and vibrant lightfast pigments. As well as being highly pigmented, the formulation provides a viscosity and structure to the ink, along with the unique linseed smell. This keeps the relief print as fresh and bright as the day it was created. All the inks are rated 6 or higher on the International Blue Wool Scale. The range benefits from lovely metalic silver and gold as well as a transparent base. They can be used on all types of relief plate and can be cleaned up with vegetable oil before a final wipe with a low odour or plant based solvent.

The water-based, high-quality aqua-Linoprint colours contain natural binders such as gum Arabic as well as organic/inorganic pigments. They are easy to apply due to optimum open-times and result in even, sharp prints with fast drying times (wipe-resistant after approx. 15 minutes).
All colours offer maximum light fastness (4 and 5 stars) and an excellent intensity (especially black). The formulation for the colours in tubes and jars is the same. Due to its fluid consistency all aqua-Linoprint colours can easily be applied to different surfaces such as paper, felt, cardboard and suitable also for wood engraving and printing with various materials.
The smooth colours are of pleasant odour and can be overprinted with other colours. They are intermixable, ready to use and can be diluted with water.

Akua Intaglio Ink was originally formulated for intaglio printmaking, however this ink can also be applied with a brayer for relief printmaking, monotype, and collagraphs; and it will print from any plastic, wood, linoleum or metal plate. It is a soy based ink which is made with high quality lightfast pigments. The inks have a thick consistency with minimal water content and contain no toxic driers - this means a longer working time. The ink cleans up easily with a dry rag followed by soap and water. Inexpensive liquid dish detergent can be used. Never use toxic solvents. Prints can be re-soaked immediately after printing if handled carefully. Once the print is dry, Akua Intaglio is permanent. Ink will never skin or harden in the jar or the ink slab, meaning minimal ink is wasted. Wiping the plate with Akua Intaglio is easier than wiping oil-based ink, meaning you need to spend less time cleaning up.
