Workshop Christmas linocut & print
HO HO HO...
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 festive artworks. Hosted by Artist Melanie, you'll see linocut & print first hand and close up!
Work with Christmas templates or come up with your own idea, plenty guidance available to suggest a best design approach to this creative activity. Print a set of 10 cards on the day and skills to continue at home. We sell everything you'll need if you wanted to make your own cards to send to friends and family - or perhaps to sell at markets over the festive period.
A chance here to see examples of an Artists' own print work and past students. Melanie 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 a wide choice of ink colours or mix your own.
WARNING - this activity is super addictive.
