Description

Create your own linocut and print it yourself using our antique Columbian printing press!

This workshop will teach you the basics of linocut printing, there is no experience required and all materials will be provided. We will cover how to transfer your design onto a block, demonstrate carving tips and techniques and show you how to make beautiful prints.

You'll get to practice each stage and can choose to come up with your own design or choose from a couple pre-prepared designs. For over 18s, beginners and non-artistic people welcome!

 

Joanna Lisowiec is a freelance illustrator and designer living in Yorkshire, England.

As an illustrator and printmaker I’m known for a bold style of illustration with lots of texture, usually focused on the beauty of nature and narratives inspired by folklore.

I also do work as a hand-letterer and packaging designer. My designs are highly illustrative and inspired by vintage lettering and packaging but with modern elements like bright colours and vivid illustrations.
