One of the simplest forms of printmaking this age old technique can be one of the hardest to master. The class will look at how differing materials such as wood and Lino can be used to create striking graphic effects, taking inspiration from some of the great exponents of the art. We will look at ways to print in black and white, as well as reduction printing to achieve multiple colours from a single block.
