| Descriptive Notes | Loring: prints in paste paper.
This type of paste paper is created when a relief cut image (wood or metal for example) would be 'inked' with a colored paste, then printed. In this particular example after the paste colors were printed, a black inked relief cut was printed over the top of the paste.
The primary colors for this example are black, yellow, blue, red and green.
