WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
An introduction to relief printing where participants can create their own simple, botanically-inspired linocut and come away with a useful and beautiful tea towel, as well as the knowledge of a new creative skill.
Students should bring a studio apron or studio outfit, as we will be printing.
OPTIONAL – Visual inspiration (your own leaves, photos, drawings), and any additional paper or fabric you would like to print on (t-shirts, bags, fabric scraps)
