Learn the basics of relief printing. Students can choose to carve wood or linoleum. Tuition includes the cost of supplies. Students will take home 4 small prints. Ink, tools, paper provided. Those who have previous experience may join as well.

Carve a small woodblock/lino and print! Use black ink or other single color.

Bring an idea or drawing for a 5 x 7-inch block. It can be a photo or a drawing or other piece of artwork. I will bring some magazines but the more formed your idea the faster you can get started.

Hour 1 and 2: We will walk through the steps involved and begin work transposing design onto a woodblock. Then we will start carving the block!

Hour 3-4: finish carving block; sand; We will tear our paper and print and edition of 4-6 from the blocks we carved.
