# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Carve, Paint & Print – Provincetown Whiteline
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 29 Nov, 2025 at 10:30 am
- **Event Description**: Whiteline printmaking was pioneered in 1914 by Blanche Lazzell and other artists in Provincetown, USA. Inspired by Japanese woodblock printmaking, it emerged in response to the wartime scarcity of wood and tools.

Using soft Japanese wood, the design is outlined with a small gouge, creating the white line that defines and separates each colour. These gouges are easy to use and the carving is simple. The wood surface is then painted with ordinary paintbrushes and watercolour paints.

Japanese bamboo paper is laid over the wood, and the wet paint transfers into the fibres by pressing with a wooden spoon or Japanese baren. Prints can be soft and delicate or bold and vibrant, depending on how the block is painted. The woodgrain adds texture and interest. Areas can be painted and printed multiple times to build up layers and gradations.

Julie will demonstrate how Provincetown whiteline differs from traditional Mokuhanga Japanese woodblock.

No painting or carving experience is required. You can bring your own design or create one on the day. Julie will also bring plenty of ideas to choose from. The maximum print size is 15 x 20cm, or smaller at 11.5 x 16.5cm to fit a greetings card.

You’ll leave with one or more unique prints, a blank greetings card, your woodblock, and the skills to continue at home.
