In this fun workshop, students will carve and print their own rubber stamp designs for printing a two-colour image using two stamps. You will learn how to carve a soft linoleum block, make a few test prints of your finished stamps, and then print your unique stamp design on a small set of cards and envelopes.

In this class, you will learn how to expose an image onto a silkscreen using photo sensitive emulsion, and print and take home three tote bags with your single colour screen print.

In this fun 2-hour workshop, students will carve and print their own rubber stamp designs. You will learn how to carve a soft linoleum block, make a few test prints of your finished stamp, and then print your unique stamp design on a small set of cards and envelopes.

In this class you will learn the basics of how to create a two-colour silkscreen print on paper. We will cover: making positives or transparencies, exposing images on a screen, how to register (line up) your printing, and pulling prints.

In this class, students will create richly coloured prints on fabric using linoleum, woodblocks, rollers, and letterpress blocks. We will cover some of the challenges of printing on fabric versus paper, and use pre-cut blocks and other print matrices to experiment with printing our fabrics both by hand and in a printing press. You will go home with a beautifully printed .5 metre x .5 metre square of fabric to enjoy as is or to use in future projects.

In this class you'll learn the basics of carving and printing a relief print from a linoleum block. You will design and carve your own block and learn how to print it by hand as well as on a press, and will leave the class with an edition of six completed prints in one or two colours.

This class runs Saturday mornings, June 13 and 20, from 11am to 1pm.

Reductive woodcut is a full colour printing method in which each successive layer of colour is carved and printed from a single sheet of wood. In this three-session class you will design and create an edition of six woodblock prints using up to four separate colours. This is a fast paced class and we will get right into carving our blocks on the first day, so you should come prepared with an idea or a drawing for an 8x10 inch block.

This class runs Thursday evenings for three weeks: June 11, 18, and 25, from 6-9pm.
