We are pleased to welcome back Emily Feaver for a morning of fun and creativity.
Whether you’re a beginner or looking to define your skills, this workshop will guide you through the steps of the creative art of lino cutting and printing. Included in the workshop will be the fundamentals of carving using your own design, students will draw/trace their designs onto the lino, Emily will then demonstrate various approaches to cutting. Once you have created your design and cut the lino to reveal you image, Emily will then help you explore the magic of printing as you bring your artwork to life, the completed lino cut is then inked with rollers and printed by hand.
Students are asked to bring along a few ideas / sketches on paper as potential subject matter. Any images, patterns or lettering are welcome, Emily will offer guidance on what will work best in print and what is doable within the time frame – best to keep it small and simple. Emily will bring along plenty of images to inspire.
