Description
Discover this enjoyable craft at my introduction to lino printing workshop.
Using the tools of the trade, you will cut and carve your own design into a lino block to create an image to print. No experience is needed as I will take you through the process and show you examples of the technique so you can create your own unique edition print. Lino printing is an enjoyable and rewarding process that can create exciting results and leaves you with a lino design that you can keep using once you leave the session too.
No previous experience is necessary to join this session. All tools provided as well as light refreshments.
