About

Create your very own artworks which can be framed and hung in your home or given as handmade gifts.

Drawing & Designing: I suggest coming with an image or idea in mind ready to draw straight onto your lino so you have more time to carve. I will also provide images to use.

Carving: You will be taught how to carve into the block using different cutting tools and techniques. This can take a little while depending on how much detail you want in your print.

Printing: Lastly you will be shown how to roll block printing ink onto your lino cut and print multiple copies on A4 size textured watercolour paper. Each print will use a registration process to ensure an even placement when printing and applying pressure to transfer the ink.

At this stage you will be able to create up to 1-2 prints of your work and also be able to take your carved lino block home to continue printing should you wish to do so now that you have learnt the process. Printing blocks can be used hundreds of times.
