Intro To Block Printing: Carve & Print Your Own Designs

Block printing is one of the oldest forms of printmaking. It offers a simple method for creating your own graphics and patterns, and thankfully only requires a handful of tools and supplies to produce your own prints. In our introduction to block printing workshop, you will take your own graphic or pattern design, then learn to transfer it to a Speedy Carve block to produce a linocut stamp. Each student will make two-three block printing stamps and several prints featuring your block print designs.
