Service Description
This workshop is only available for adults (18+). No prior experience is necessary. I take only four students at a time so you will have plenty of one-on-one instruction. I also complete much of the preparatory work so you can focus on learning the important skills of the medium. The price includes all materials, and a $75 non-refundable deposit. The structure of the workshop is as follows: Day 1: Learn about woodcut printmaking. Prepare a block with a provided image. Carve and print the block. Day 2: Bring several images to class. Create a woodcut-appropriate drawing from one of the images. Begin carving a block from this image. Day 3: Continue carving your block. This is an open studio day. If you finish carving your block on Day 2, you do not need to attend Day 3. Day 4: Mix coloured ink. Proof the block and assess print quality. Print and edition from the block. Learn about editioning prints. Clean up. Please note that this class will be cancelled a week beforehand if more than 1 person is not registered.
