Printmaking

I run printmaking workshops for all ages and abilities, ranging from primary school to adults.

Children's workshops are designed as an introduction to relief printing and use safe and easy materials, so no sharp cutters or knives. During these classes we focus on the techniques needed to produce a clear sharp image and print on tote bags for students to keep.

This session takes around 2 hours and begins with sketching out some ideas then refining our designs, transferring them to the Foam printing blocks and carving our designs with a sharp pencil.

These workshops are also available for adults and have been really popular as team activities for work mates and family groups. Techniques and materials are slightly different for adults and lino carving is also available.
