Intro to Linocut

Join printmaker Carl Middleton in the studio for a one-day lino workshop. We will look at the unique properties of linocut printmaking, taking you through the design stage to exploring multiple layering processes and techniques.

We will
• Learn about the essential tools and materials used for linocut
• Explore how to develop and translate your image into a linocut block
• Understand how to carve safely and print effectively

About the Tutor
Carl has almost thirty years experience in teaching printmaking - from his time as a tutor at London College of Printing to his move in establishing Studio B in Somerset.

He has successfully guided many beginners, as well as advanced artists through the process. Carl’s own work is mostly abstract, using a combination of both linocut and letterpress to explore balance and colour through bold shapes and textures.

• This workshop is for ages thirteen up. All abilities.
• Saturday 26th September - 10.00am to 4.00pm.
• Refreshments and lunch provided.
