Introduction to Linocut Printmaking
Linocut Printmaking Workshop

In this hands-on printmaking class, all the basics will be covered. Whether you are brand new to linocut or already have some experience, this class will help you develop and hone your skills. Students will learn to create images with print in mind and transfer images to linoleum. This class will also cover cutting strategies, hand printing, and printing with a press. Students will carve linoleum on day one of the workshop, and on day two students will print the linoleum using the etching press at Quartermaster Press.
