COURSE DATES FOR EARLY 2014 are as above. We are running other courses, but these are already booked. For those who don't know, each course is taught by both Rosie and Robin jointly and has a maximum of three students to ensure you get the maximum of attention. Unless you email us with specific requirements, we assume that you have no prior printmaking experience and will teach you from scratch all of the techniques you need to be able to go home and make linocut images of your own.
We specifically avoid using expensive or specialist equipment and presses: everything we use can comfortably be carried in a satchel, which makes this course ideal for people just starting out and unsure whether this is the art form for them. In two days you will make a black and white image and a large multi-colour image using the reduction method. We cover all of the materials, papers and suppliers and provide ongoing contact and advice with our former students as they progress after the course. If you want to come back for an intermediate level course, or are already a printmaker, then we can tailor courses to meet those needs just as easily.
Courses cost £195 per person for two days, with lunches and materials included, and are held in our idyllic Wytham Studio in the heart of the University of Oxford's Wytham Woods.
