A Fresh Look at Relief
Printing
With Carol Nunan and Rebecca Vincent
Saturday and Sunday | May 7/8| 10.00 – 16.00 |
Whether you’ve tried lino-cuts before or you’re completely new to the
subject, this course will give you an alternative way of working with the
medium. We all know what great, crisp, graphic results you can get from a
relief block but there are so many ways to utilise it creatively for
alternative and colourful results.
Using the wonderfully soft and versatile Japanese vinyl, we will help you
make a one-colour relief block and print it. But we’re not going to stop
there! Using your block, we will demonstrate 6 different ways to print it
in multi-colour:
Printing will be fast and fun with lots of original prints being produced
during the weekend. This course is suitable for complete beginners and
artists who’ve used the medium before but want a fresh take on the subject.
