Description

Come and get your hands inky and your creativity flowing in this mid-week taster session workshop which will introduce you to the technique of lino print.

Lino is a traditional relief technique where the surface of a linoleum block is carved away to create marks or an image. Over the course of this taster workshop you will learn how to use lino tools to draw into the surface  of your softcut lino plate before inking and printing your plate on one of our presses.

Our taster sessions offer a brief introduction to some of the key printmaking techniques practiced here at WYPW, and a glimpse into the processes involved in creating hand-made prints. You will be guided and encouraged by experienced artists who use printmaking in their own art practice, in a professionally equipped workshop setting. 

Your tutor: Fabian Osborne

Based at WYPW, Fabian Osborne’s practice explores the forms and hidden patterns found within natural and manmade landscapes. Interested in the transitory and unpredictability nature of the shapes and surfaces which inspire him, much of his work explores ideas around weathering and erosion. His recent research into lino etching has enabled him to replicate these qualities and currently forms the main focus of his print-making practice. 

Experience level

This course is suitable for beginners and well as those looking to learn a new printmaking technique or who want a process refresher.

What’s included?

All course prices include basic materials such as inks, paper, tools and equipment.
