Lino Cutting Workshops

For artists and non-artists alike

Lino Cutting Workshops

My one day lino cutting workshops are normally hosted @ my studio in Stellenridge, Bellville, Cape Town.

This workshop is for people who wish to begin their exploration of relief block printing or simply want to try something new. No previous art experience is necessary; both artists and non-artists are welcome.

Together, we will explore a range of simple methods for creating stunning images on paper, giving you your very own unique artwork to take home. You will also learn a variety of different mark-making techniques and discover how these can be used to create texture, pattern, and character in your prints.

Most importantly, this is a relaxed and enjoyable creative experience. Take some time out, get your hands busy, switch off from the everyday and simply enjoy the process of making something with your own hands. You will be supported throughout the entire process, from your first mark to your finished print.
