Explore Linocut Printmaking Techniques

Sunday – May 25th
Time: 12:30-3:30pm

Level -All Levels Welcome

Join artist Lisa Leskien as she leads you through the Linocut printmaking process.

No printmaking experience necessary. Suitable for ages 12+. You will be guided through the steps from creating and transfering an image onto the blocks, techniques for carving, techniques for printmaking in various colours like reductions and puzzle techniques, inking the block, registering the prints, hand-printing, and signing and numbering the prints.

The $135.60 price includes all materials and step-by-step instructions to carve 2 blocks, and make a limited edition print run of 10 on paper, 6 cards (with envelopes), a notebook, an apron and a canvas tote/pouch.

We will be using water-based printing ink (that can stain clothing). It may get messy. Please wear clothes that you are OK getting ink on. We are solvent-free (no smelly cleaners here!). Please arrive 5 minutes early. Exploring Linocut Printmaking workshop registrations must be paid in advance – ticket sales end on Friday May 23.
