Learn both Letterpress and Wood Engraving in a printmaking weekend.
About
Letterpress: Working up to A4 in size and using a selection of lead and wood type, we will learn how to set, ink and print type to create striking, bold prints using a range of ink colours. During the day we will print a small edition of cards and prints.
Wood Engraving: Working on a small scale, we will use specialist tools to cut a design into an end grain woodblock. We will learn how to ink up and print to produce an edition of beautifully intricate engravings.
