Join Emily for a one day workshop to make sustainable 3D Christmas decorations. Suitable for beginners and those with a little experience, you will be carving and printing with lino to create beautiful, folded decorations under the guidance and tuition of artist and printmaker Emily Brooks.
We will provide the geometric templates, and you’ll have the chance to create your own decorative designs. If you’re stuck for ideas – we can help with that - even people who say they cannot draw, create beautiful linocut prints.
We will provide a relaxed and nurturing atmosphere, and you will get the opportunity to work at your own pace.
The course will cover:
Advice and tuition will be on-hand at every step.
An introduction (or a refresher) of simple linocut carving techniques.
Creating and printing a small sampler to practice carving skills.
Developing your final design, with support if needed.
Transferring the design onto a lino block and carving.
Ink rolling and hand-printing in your choice of colours using a selection of water-based printing inks.
Assembling the decorations by cutting and folding our hand-printed templates
