Description

 

Join us for a wonderfully festive workshop where you will learn the basics of lino printing with our tutor Kirsty Hall.

 

A bit more detail

Lino printing is a very relaxing pass-time, creating print after print with different inks. You will learn how to create your own lino block designs and use coloured inks to create 12 Christmas cards as well as gift tags and place setting cards. This lovely process is fun to work with and you can experiment with colour and composition.

About the Tutor

Kirsty Hall is an artist and print maker inspired by the natural world. Her personal work often uses animals and botanical forms as a starting point and she enjoys creating detailed illustrations and combining them with block colour in a graphic style. She is currently exploring screen and lino printing and loving learning more about these wonderful processes. Kirsty exhibits her work and sells prints and originals in her online shop through her business The Little Art House.

Kirsty is also an experienced Art & Design teacher with a background in A-Level teaching and it is this wealth of experience which inspires her to create innovative, creative workshops with teaching at their heart.
