Registration
Inbal Newman
Friday, November 1
10:00am – 4:00pm
This one-day workshop focuses on simple techniques of relief printing to create a series of holiday cards to show and share with loved ones. During the workshop participants will learn to carve linoleum blocks, print test proofs, take rubbings of seasonal found materials, and print an edition using water-based block printing inks.
Materials will be provided, though participants are encouraged to bring flat, textured objects for printing like leaves, pine needles, lace, fabric, etc. (keep in mind such objects will end up covered with ink). Everyone will leave the workshop with about 10 cards.
All levels are encouraged to register.
Student should bring:
- An apron
- A notebook/sketch book
- Optional: flat textured items
