Signature Technique

Block Printing

Tess’ Top Tips

  • Print onto a foam printing matt. You should be able to wiggle your printing block as you press down.
  • Always tap paint onto the surface of your printing block, never wipe or squeeze.
  • Have a practice print so that you get a feel for the right amount of paint to be used.
  • Use sponge dabbers for multi-colour printing. They are much more precise.
