Three layer reduction relief print made with an 8 x 8 inch linoleum block printed on 15x15 inch Hosho Pro paper. ​​
A reduction print is using the same block, the artist carves away or “reduces” portions of a printing block, printing at intervals, one color at a time. Colors are usually printed from lightest to darkest since dark colors cover lighter color better than the reverse.

Relief printing is when you carve into a printing block (usually linoleum or wood) that you then use to press onto paper and make a print. The lines or shapes you carve into the printing block will not have ink on them, so they will not show up on your paper. Carving tools come in different shapes and sizes to create different marks. Ink is applied to the raised surface of the block and pressure of a press puts it onto the paper. Prints can also be made by hand pressing.
