Workshop linocut & print beginners

Block printing or linocut and print as often known, is a relaxing & super easy activity with great results. Made popular by Picasso & Matisse, you will work with lino cutting tools to carve your design onto a lino sheet and print your own series of artworks. Hosted by Artist Catherine, you'll see linocut & print first hand and close up!

Work with Catherine's templates or come up with your own idea, plenty guidance available to suggest a best design approach to this creative activity. 

A chance here to see examples of an Artists' own print work and past students. Catherine gives full instruction by demonstrations throughout the workshop and by setting the class short practice tasks. Supported by 1:1 guidance, make this as easy or difficult as you like! Use any of Catherine's 20 ink colours or mix your own. Also try out the print press. Work onto papers or make your own cards/postcards. You will be working with your own printing kit with an option to buy this kit at the end of the workshop so you can continue being creative at home.
