A linocut is a type of relief print. Relief printing is when a piece of paper is “stamped” with ink from the top surface of the plate.
Other types of relief prints are woodcuts and engraving. Essentially, a linocut is the same as a woodcut but the plate isn’t wood, it’s a piece of linoleum, and because of the softness of the plate, it is easier to carve.
When you carve your lino you are cutting away the area that will be white and leaving the area that will be black (or coloured if you are printing in colour). Linocuts were originally made popular by Picasso, while before that they were simply regarded as a student’s medium to practise for woodcuts.

Answer:

A linocut is created by cutting away an image from linoleum, a soft synthetic material. It is effective because it creates images that are bold and striking, in which the designs are highly contrasting. The process is critiqued because it is relatively simple to create and perfect, when comparing it to other techniques in art.

Monitoring your grades will help you pinpoint your academic weaknesses. Please select the best answer from the choices provided
lys-0071 [83]

TRUE.

Absolutely true, one important aspect about monitoring your grades is that you are able to compare your grades in each course, this gives you the opportunity to know which field you are actually lacking behind or weak, its easier to buckle up when you monitor your grades than when you don't, because without monitoring your grades, you can't possibly know your area of weakness.

Naturalistic encaustic portraits of the roman era, from the fayum oasis in egypt, were created as ________.
ExtremeBDS [4]
<span>Naturalistic encaustic portraits of the Roman era, from the Fayum Oasis in Egypt, were created as funerary adornments.
This type of art refers to adornments that have to do with cemeteries and tombs. It was especially popular in Egypt, where sarcophagi were embellished so as to commemorate the dead. In the Roman empire this was also a custom, only tombstones instead of sarcophagi were decorated.

How does benvenuto cellini's perseus counter the classical contrapposto pose?
enyata [817]
The classical contrapposto pose consists of the figure standing with one leg holding the majority of the weight and the other leg relaxed. it is a slouched, and natural sort of pose. 

benvenuto cellini's perseus also stands with weight on one leg, but this is from him stepping forward, in action, rather than resting on his leg. this results in less curve of the chest angle in the shoulders, and conveys less relaxing message.

hope that helps :)
