Book a block of 4 - and receive a discount. You can mix/ match the weeks you want to come along to. We are running the same 4 week cycle twice over the 8 week term. Anna will provide tuition and guidance, but you will be working on your own projects. Please consider the best way to attend this course is to book a 4 session in a row which guides you through a complete project from total beginner through to design, carve and print your own design.
WEEK 1 - Create a design inspired by Angie Lewin and Art Nouveau. We will take a simplistic landscape shape and add nature to our scene. We will learn how to take items from nature and adapt them in abstract ways for print. We will practice how to use cutting tools.
WEEK 2 - We will trace our designs onto our lino and plan out which colour will go where. We will carve out items we want to appear white on our designs and create our first prints using roller and printing inks.
WEEK 3 - This week we will carve out our first colour and learn more skills in carving to create a range of marks and patterns. Printing our next layer.
WEEK 4 - Carve and print a last layer/ last colour and look at finish techniques and adding finer details.
