Cutting images into wood and inking up with colour can produce bold and dramatic effects. This 2-day course will explore the diverse ways artists use this direct process, looking at the practicalities of reduction printing.
This course is very hands-on, practical, and fun. You will be using Japanese ply to cut from and explore the benefits of using different types of paper for printing. There will be a chance to use our newly refurbished Columbia relief press which was made in 1847. Please bring a sketch or a simple digital printout to work with. The image size will be up to a maximum of A3.
