Two day linocut workshop at my brand new garden studio in Bicester, Oxfordshire. 10am-4pm both days.
I'll show you how to create a small reduction lino print. A reduction linocut is a multi-layered print which is created by repeated cutting and printing from the same block of lino. The tuition is suitable for beginners or improvers. If you have a little experience of linocut or reduction already, they'll be plenty of time for you to work on a specific aspect of your work. If you are new to linocut or reduction, a two day workshop will give you extra time to absorb the process. I'll provide all the equipment and materials you will need. We will be working on lino which is 15x20cm, using around four colours.
We will cover how to plan a design and transfer it to the lino; how to cut the lino; how to ink up the lino and how to print it by hand so that you can easily replicate the process at home with minimal equipment. You will also learn how to correctly register your prints. We will be using water based inks and soft cut lino. You will leave with a small run of prints.
Please bring along a few images or drawings that inspire you and a bite to eat for lunch.
15% off when you book your friends in on the same date! You can add more places at checkout.
If you would prefer to work on a one or two colour design that is 20x30cm, that is fine too, but do let me know ahead of time, so that I can prepare the correct paper and lino for you.
