Easter Block Printing Workshop – Wood and linocut printing workshop: design images with an Easter theme to print onto paper and cards.
On this one day workshop you will learn how to design an image, and use cutting tools to carve your design into a wood or lino block. You will then ink and print your block onto a selection of papers and blank cards.
Your design can be original, a found image of your choosing, or based on images and prints from the selection provided. Simple methods of introducing more colours into your prints will be covered.
With guidance on choosing and designing images, and how to successfully render on wood or lino blocks for printing.
You can take your block away after the workshop to print more at home.
It will be possible to buy extra materials.
