The process to make an engraving implies inking a carved bock which will then be pressed to reveal the design. Discover it step by step in pictures.
Linoprinting is a form of relief printing: what must stay white (or reveal the color of the printing paper) is carved away with a tool called 'gouge'.
The printed design appears in reverse and the block can be compared to a stamp.
