I’m so glad you are able to join me for this workshop!

Over 3 hours you will create unique repeat patterns using stamps that you will carve from lino.

Repeat patterns are used in art and fashion. A single stamp can be stamped adjacent to the next to create a continuous pattern, or rotated to create larger shapes.

What to expect:

You will be given a 9 x 15cm piece of lino and from that you will create 2 stamps that you can use on paper, cards or fabric (in this class, we will be printing on paper).
You will be guided on how to use lino carving tools and printmaking inks to create your own unique design that you will want to frame! The nature of my classes is quite intimate (only 6 students per class) and I will be teaching and guiding you throughout the class.
You will sketch your ideas and I will show you how to transfer them onto the lino plate
Once you have carved your stamp, you will then print your designs onto paper or card so you have pieces to take home.
Most of this class will be spent on the printing process, as opposed to my "Inner Warrior" lino printing workshop, where the focus is more on the drawing and the carving.
My aim is to educate and empower you to create something you will be proud of.

No prior experience necessary, all you will need is enthusiasm and a fun attitude.

BYO refreshments. If you choose to BYO alcohol, please be responsible and limit your consumption to 2 drinks as we are using sharp lino cutting tools and you will likely be driving home. The focus is on the art.

Please arrive at 5:30pm and we will start the class by 5:45pm. We will finish the class by 8:45pm.
