Description

Two colour lino cutting and printing next promoted dates: Thursday 31st October - fully booked. Saturday 9th November - fully booked. Sunday 24th November - fully booked. Lino cutting and printing is a very enjoyable process that can be explored at our kitchen tables and requires the minimum of specialist equipment. Many of us may remember creating our first lino cut during our Art lessons at secondary school. If you have created a number of single colour lino prints and now feel ready to challenge yourself further, this is the workshop for you. However, if you are new to the process, you may prefer to focus on the skills relating to one colour cutting and printing and work at a slightly slower pace. Working from your chosen images, artist, teacher and maker, Liz Wellby, will guide you through this one day workshop, introducing you to 2 colour lino cutting and printing. You will cover developing ideas into designs, re cap safe cutting methods and the two stages of cutting and hand printing. Liz Wellby will host this workshop at her home studio, The Slipper Studio. The venue is beautifully presented with handcrafted workbenches and a wood burner, with views into the village. About the tutor Liz Wellby is a versatile and experienced artist, teacher and maker, with a particular interest in sculpture and printmaking. Following the completion of a Fine Arts degree at Loughborough University and subsequent post graduate studies, she returned to Derbyshire, where for over 25 years she has lived and worked. Liz now lives and works from The Slipper Studio, in a small village on the edge of the Peak District, kept company by her husband and a cat called Bert. It is possible to arrange this workshop on different dates; should you wish to book 3 - 5 places for friends and family, the cost is £89 per person or £130 each for 2 people; please contact me via ‘message the tutor’ if this is of interest.
