About this Event
Join us for an fun and intensive woodcut workshop with Outlaw Printmaker, rock star artist, and professional mountain dew drinker, Sean Starwars!
Be amazed as you learn everything you need to know to carve and print a 4-color image from multiple wood blocks, including tips and tricks for image preparation, tool selection and maintenance, ink mixing, as well as various carving and printing techniques. You’ll marvel at how quickly we go from a block of wood to colorful print. Whatever you do, don’t miss out on this opportunity. Come for an exciting, fast-paced weekend to hammer out some carvings and blast out some prints—Starwars style!
All levels welcome—Some experience with relief printmaking/carving is helpful, but not necessary.
All materials and tools will be provided for this class. Please bring along drawings or images to use as the basis for your woodcut design.
This class will run from Friday 25th to Sunday 27th October, 10am - 5pm each day.
