Linocut Printing
Presented by: The Creative Community Campus
Sally-Ann is making the journey from Taupo, once again to share her Reduction Linocut Workshop!
Linocut printing is fun and easy. So, come along to this workshop and learn how to design, carve and print a two-colour linocut print. If you have never carved and printed with lino before or have a vague memory of doing it at school, then this workshop is for you.
Sally-Ann will lead you step by step through the linocut printing process, learning how to use carving tools, then carving and printing a linocut.
You’ll also learn to use the printing press, and how to print by hand using a simple spoon or jam jar. Sally-Ann will send you home feeling confident enough to continue printing with lino in your own home.
All materials are provided. If you do have your own carving tools, you are welcome to bring them along.
