Helen’s Lino Printing

2024
Wednesdays 6.30pm – 9pm

Fridays 10am-12.30pm

Lino-printing, also known as linocut, is a form of printmaking where designs are carved into a linoleum block. This accessible art form allows for the creation of vibrant, textured prints and is easy to learn, making it suitable for beginners and experienced artists alike. Helen’s approach, offering ready-cut blocks and a collection of prints for inspiration, is a fantastic way to introduce newcomers to the craft. It provides a hands-on experience without the initial hurdle of learning to carve, encouraging creativity and exploration in the medium.

Fee
£18 per class, or book a block of 3 sessions for £50. Helen runs a Reward Card system where regular learners can claim a free class after booking 3 blocks of 3, or  recommend a friend and claim another free session.
