Block Printing – Session 2

Over the course of 3 afternoons learn how to create a colourful block print. Look at the beautiful plant and bird themed work of William Morris to inspire and help you produce a design with 3 or 4 colours. Using a piece of adigraph and special carving tools, together with careful instruction, begin the process of carving away and then printing up each successive colour. As the layers develop the image will be reconstructed in front of you. It is a very satisfying and exciting technique. All ages and abilities are welcome for these sessions. The materials will be provided and there is space for 4 so it would be best to book in advance to secure a place.
