Block print art is done using wooden blocks or linoleum and block printing ink. Using these tools a wide range of designs can be created on different types of fabrics. Some of the most popular types are direct printing, resist printing, and discharge printing. Direct printing is a type in which the fabric is printed and then the desired color is dyed onto the fabric. In the resist type block printing on fabric is done with a mixture of clay and resin that is used to cover the areas that are to be protected from coloring. Then the fabric is dyed and a rippled effect is created in the protected areas. Then there is discharge printing in which after dying color is removed from the desired area to be filled in by different colors or designs.
