Linocutting and Printmaking with a difference.......
Tutor: Jackie Devereux Course Code: 4224-02
Summary
For all levels of experience, taking this amazingly expressive medium beyond belief as we experiment with colour, paper surfaces and collage. Gone are the woeful days of cut fingers and crude prints, as we bring in improved but traditionally simple materials. Coupled with original ideas to stretch each individual's needs. Not to be missed........
Description
This expressive medium will be tailored to your individual needs and will appeal to all levels and none! In fact it needs to be seen to be believed. Come and have a go.....and if you have some experience, Jackie has more cutting and printing techniques to share.
Please bring with you
Please see the attached image - I recommend the latest easy cutting materials shown here - all available from online art stores and/or Hobbycraft.
I will have a certain amount of equipment with me to either use or purchase but it would be useful if you could at least have a set of cutting tools with you.
Otherwise, all printing equipment, rollers, ink, paper etc will be available.
Do contact me if in doubt, and I look forward to working with you no matter how much or how little experience you bring to the table.
Level
No previous experience necessary, but if you have some then be prepared to move on.
