Relief Printmaking – lino-cut and wood-cut
6 weekly evening classes 7 pm – 9 pm
Wednesdays 27th October – 1st December 2021
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 explore the range of tools and different marks made by each, printing by hand and by using the presses in the workshop.
Cost: £120 (10% off for CPW members)
