PLAY 03. | Create With Lino
Combine Carving and Printing to Craft Bold, Striking Imagery.
Linocut is a classic method of relief printing where you carve your design into a block, ink it, and transfer it onto paper. In this workshop, you’ll explore carving and mark-making techniques to create your own unique designs that can be inked and printed.
To make the process enjoyable and accessible, we’ll use soft carving blocks—perfect for achieving fine details with ease. Our beautiful cast iron press will be used to transfer your artwork from block to paper, delivering clean, professional results.
Whether you’re new to printmaking or looking to refresh your skills, this course provides a fantastic opportunity to dive into a range of techniques in our purpose-designed studio.
Participants will learn in a small, supportive group and take home beautifully printed, original works of art. Students are encouraged to bring along any images or drawings they’d like to transform into prints.
Who’s It For?
Designed for ages 12+ with a love for art, creativity, and hands-on activities.
