Abstract
For a long time the size limitation of a print has been determined by the size of available and suitable print paper. To overcome these limitations artists have looked for materials other than paper as an image supporting surface. The purpose of this essay is to look into problems of printing on fabrics, using wood, plastic sheet and linoleum as print media. The term 'oversize' here refers to sizes larger than paper sizes available, i.e. paper sizes that seldom exceed 30 x 40 in. Consequently, the materials used for oversize relief prints (fabric, wood and linoleum) will exceed these average suitable paper sizes. However, these materials have their own limitations both in size and in applicability for this purpose, which are the following: limits of manual pressure in printing; practical size limits of wood or linoleum and available fabric widths and lengths for the project. These three limitations are discussed below.
