Linocut is a relief Printmaking technique that is similar to Woodcut. A design is cut into a linoleum sheet with handheld chisels. This Art practice is immersive and rewarding - very meditative. Each completed carved block is a work of Art that can then in turn create seemingly endless duplicate works of Art on paper and fabric.
You are invited to bring your own designs - two that are up to 2" x 3" as well as one that is up to 5" × 7" - or select from original drawings created by your Instructor. Great for everything from Art Prints and Dolls to greeting cards and ornaments!

Safely carve, ink and print at home by hand as well as with a Press on paper and fabric
