After teaching printmaking at Marlborough College Summer School for the last three years, I'm delighted to be running my first ever Summer School from my printmaking studio in Rowde at The Mind Tree Cafe! Join me this summer for a variety of creative courses...

Approaches to Linocut
Date: Tues 7th July - Fri 10th July
Time: 10am til 4pm

This 1-week immersive course introduces a wide range of linocut approaches, combining traditional and experimental methods to help you develop your own creative style and technical skills.

Over the week, you’ll explore:

• Reduction linocut: carving a single block in stages for multi-layered prints
• Multi-plate printing: combining multiple blocks for complex compositions
• Jigsaw linocut: creating playful, interlocking designs
• Chine collé: incorporating delicate papers into prints
• Mixed media approaches: combining linocut with drawing, collage, or painting
• Stencils, stamps, and embossing to add texture and pattern

The course provides a supportive, hands-on environment, encouraging experimentation and personal expression. By the end of the week, you'll will leave with a range of original linocut prints, knowledge of multiple techniques, and the confidence to continue printmaking independently or in the studio.

July Summer School Courses are recommended for ages 16 years and above. Once you book your place, you’ll receive an email with more details about the course nearer to the time.

If you have any questions, please get in touch.
