Botanical Art Linocut Workshop

Jill Sans, artist and owner of The HeArt Box, will be guiding this linocut workshop for ages 16 and up. All levels of creativity are welcomed. This workshop is for those who want to learn the art of linocut, and as we are surrounded by the blooms of spring, we will explore botanical art as our subject matter. We will have 4 seats available. Masks are required to be worn while in the classroom. Pre-registration is encouraged, and registration closes on March 28th.

We will be drawing from botanical photos onto our linoleum block, and from there we will spend time hand carving and then printing on 5×7 paper. These are great sizes for gifts or framed art. You will have time to print multiple prints, learning the techniques of printing from linoleum blocks. You will go home with finished printed pieces of art as well as your hand carved linoleum block to use again at home.

It’s springtime, so let’s celebrate the flowers coming back! Linocut is an old technique used for printing, and while we have certainly evolved away from this process, it still remains fun and enjoyable. Linocut can be a great art form to learn to reproduce artwork.
