Service Description
What you will learn A day course which will take you throught the basics of designing, cutting and inking and printing a multi-colour lino block. This is one way to create a design with several colours which does not require as detailed thinking as reduction lino, for example. No previous experience is needed for this course. Beginners are welcome, along with those who need a refresher. Course programme Create a simple design which will can be split into separate sections and inked separately. What’s included All basic materials such as paper, tools and equipment are provided. Additional linocut blocks and printmaking papers will be available to buy during the course if you would like to try something a bit different or take some materials home to try. Preparing for your course You will be working on a piece of roughly A6 lino (100 x 152 mm but it does not need to be rectangular. Prepare a design that has two-three solid colours. White paper will be provided but you are welcome to bring your own coloured paper if you have a particular end result in mind. Artists: Pablo Picasso, Bryan Angus, Kit Boyd, Jane Walker. https://www.pinterest.co.uk/lindenstudio/linocut/jigsaw-linocut/ Food *Lunch* - you will need to bring your own packed lunch or Cranstons and Waitrose at Dobbies are just down the road if you want to do takeaway.
