In this 5 weekday evenings class, Emilie will teach you everything to get
started and be autonomous in relief printmaking. You will learn to
carve and print with lino, woodblock and rubber, all of which are part
of the fun family of relief printmaking (big stamps!). We will learn how
to add colour to our prints, by experimenting with reduction linocut,
chine-collé and multi-plate prints. Finally, we'll print tote bags
to discover the potential of textile printmaking with modular stamps
creation! No experience required!

What you get:

a super fun introduction to relief printmaking and resources to keep learning!
