Description
On this festive-themed lino printing workshop with artist Suzanne Kemplay, you will explore ways of creating simple, striking images suitable for printing onto your own greeting cards, gift tags, wrapping paper and gifts. This is a hands-on, practical and fun workshop where you will learn the basic skills and gain the confidence you need to create beautiful printed products at home without the need for expensive equipment. You will learn how to create a suitable design, practice cutting it out of lino, and select some products to print onto. You will take home your original lino design to use at home, a range of festive products you select for printing - such as greeting cards, gift tags ready to personalise, or gift wrap - plus a framed print of your original design to hang at home, or to give as a unique gift. All the equipment you will need is provided. Private workshop bookings Most of our workshops are also available to book for small private get-togethers; themed wedding and birthday celebrations; corporate team building and well-being purposes; and as in-store retail events. For larger groups, many of our workshops can be brought to a location of your choice. Please contact Lynn via 'Message the tutor' for more information. Age restrictions Our workshops are planned with adults in mind. Many are suitable for teenagers, but some may require under 16s to be accompanied for insurance purposes. Please check with us before booking.
