Beginners Lino printing workshop with printmaking artist Beth Knight

An introduction to the ‘reduction’ method of printing layers of colour.

10am - 4pm with 1hr lunch break.

Working from her home studio in North Pembrokeshire Beth creates lino cut artwork inspired by landscapes and wildlife. Aiming to capture the spirit of the natural world and the story of the landscape in her prints she uses a variety of printmaking methods to create pieces with depth and atmosphere, developing techniques to capture light, distance and detail.

This workshop is designed to be an introduction for beginners to the ‘reduction’ method of printing multiple colour layers, giving you an understanding of the step by step process and the tools and materials required.

Beth will guide you through the process of turning an image into a 2 colour lino cut. All necessary materials and tools will be provided including a suitable design image to get you started.

Students are advised to bring a box to transport their prints home safely as they will still be slightly wet. (Finished prints will be approx. A4 size).

Old clothes or an apron are also advised to save getting good clothes inky!
