Linoleum is one of the most versatile materials for creating a long-lasting print block.
During this workshop you'll explore the range of options available for designing and carving a print block - exploring not only carving techniques, but how to get the most out of both the positive and negative space in your design.
Ellie will also offer guidance on the types of ink available to you (we only work with non-toxic vegetable oil based inks - professional quality with beautiful vibrant pigments) and how to work safely with them. We will explore both hand-printing methods and press-based practice through the workshop.

Cyanotype Masterclass
More details coming soon...
In this full day Sunday school course, you will learn all about the layered print process of Chine Colle and Etching.
Etching as a process is like using a pen without the ink – literally, drawing with a dry point – to create an impression of a drawing that, when inked, can be printed from again and again.
Chine Colle is a delicate process that allows you to easily add texture and colour to prints using tissue and thin papers, making a variable edition that can individualise the mood of each piece.
On this course you will be shown step-by-step, the process of incorporating Chine Colle and selective wiping with Drypoint etching to pull distinct variable editions of a new print that you will make on the day.
