Sarah reviewed: Create with a gel printing plate in Derbyshire

"The advanced Gelli mono print class was intensive. Liz was able to demonstrate several new processes aimed at bringing more depth to our printing knowledge. In a group setting this was particularly enlightening as each person had a slightly different interpretation and we were all able to learn from each other. Liz’s relaxed manner and knowledgeable instruction helped us to be experimental yet still maintain the structure of whatever we were learning. I would highly recommend this course to anyone with a little printmaking knowledge who wants to develop new techniques in a friendly yet professional atmosphere!"

Liz Wellby - Artist, Teacher & Maker responded:

"Hi Sarah, Lovely to hear from you and thank you for letting me know about your workshop experience - it’s much appreciated. It’s always interesting working with artists whose skill set is already extensive and their focus has been developed and honed with different creative media. You bring different ideas and understanding, but with the curiosity to explore a new way of working, which creates an interesting challenge for me too. There was a lovely energy throughout the day, which you really added to. I hope you have time to continue mono printing, as I feel it will work really well with your painting practice, allowing for an interchange of ideas. Best wishes and happy printing Liz Wellby "

Elaine Lynn reviewed: The First Cut - lino cutting for beginners & rusty printmakers

"A great introduction to lino cut printing in wonderful surroundings. Lots of equipment to work with and plenty of individual attention. The last part of the day is about experimenting with colour to produce a number of print variations to take away. A full on day in a lovely relaxed atmosphere. "

Liz Wellby - Artist, Teacher & Maker responded:

"Hi Elaine, Thanks for letting me know about your day at the studio - it’s really appreciated. It was lovely to meet and work with you, seeing your ideas and understanding of the process develop. There’s lots of potential with your design, so I hope you have time to translate it into a 2 colour print. And then you can try printing onto fabric. Best wishes & happy printing. Liz Wellby"
