Fritillaries in Lino Cut with Sue Leech

T This course is suitable for beginners as well as those with experience. Sue will demonstrate how to create your own version of this beautiful image by using lino cut and textured papers. You will then create a series of unique delicate fritillary prints which you can take home and frame. The size of your prints will be approximately A5.

You will be printing with oil based inks and using vegetable oil and washing up liquid for cleaning up. No solvents will be used. Disposable gloves will be available if required.

You are also welcome to bring along images that you would like to work from as A5 printouts or sketches.

Expert tuition will be on hand at every stage – even people who say they cannot draw create beautiful linocut prints.
