đź’® Create a Custom Linocut Sketchbook Cover đź’®
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll create your own custom linocut design to print onto a sketchbook cover and fine art paper. You will be guided step-by-step through the process, from designing and carving your lino block to making your final prints.
Your design can be anything you like, so feel free to bring along your own photos, sketches, or drawings for inspiration. We’ll be working with a 4×6 inch lino block, so your design will need to fit within those dimensions.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a unique sketchbook, and the knowledge to set up your own printmaking space at home. Beginners are very welcome!
All materials are provided, and you'll take home:
- A unique kraft cover sketchbook customized with your design
- A carved Lino block to use again, and again
- Your finished artwork on fine art paper
Who is this for?
Journalers, artists, and anyone looking for a relaxed, low-key creative workshop.
