Autumn Term - Lino Cut Printing

Class Details

Lino Printing with layers! Join artist and printmaker Anupa Gardner for 8 weeks of hands-on fun and learning. Participants will have the opportunity to explore various ways of mark making on traditional lino and try out different methods such as reduction and multiblock to achieve a two colour lino print. Bring a sketch or a simple digital printout (max size A5) or use one of our many resource prints! Anupa has an MA in illustration from Edinburgh College of Art and can be often found teaching there, exhibiting her work or creating from her Custom House Studio. She has a calm and supportive nature and encourages students to find their own style and enjoy the process. All levels welcome from complete beginners to those who want to refine techniques they already have. Feel free to choose your own theme or follow Anupa’s suggestions.
