In this workshop, taught by artist and art teacher Mandy Howe, you will learn how to design, carve, and print a simple Soft-cut Linoleum Block. This is a basic relief printing technique which is easy to learn and very versatile. Combine your printed design with stamping, drawing, stenciling or collage and have fun making cards, wall hangings, or an edition of prints suitable for framing.
