Etched Linocut with Artist in Residence Scarlett Rebecca – 27th & 28th May 2023
£140.00
Etched linocut is a dynamic printmaking technique that can change the way you approach relief printing. With a caustic soda-based etch, you can create organic and spontaneous recesses in the linoleum block, resulting in a wide range of mark making with tonal variation, which can be combined with carved marks.
In this weekend class, you'll learn the basics of etched linocut and work with resists and direct application of the etch on two blocks. By the end of the weekend, you'll have created a small edition of colourful prints and proofs. The class is suitable for both beginners and those looking to refresh their printmaking skills.
We're delighted to welcome artist-in-residence Scarlett Rebecca to Belfast Print Workshop in May 2023. She'll be leading this class on etched linocut, which offers a different angle on the relief printing process. You'll have the chance to experience Scarlett's work while using our 200-year-old relief presses to print your artwork on archival paper.
