Four and a Half Hour Art Print Workshop for Two at Booker Print House

Produce an array of unique prints with a woodcut art workshop for two. An experienced creative will introduce students to the techniques of traditional Japanese printing and the process of hand printing. Using Japanese bamboo barens, discover how to achieve amazing outcomes with this ancient craft. Use multiple blocks and reduction-cutting practises to create more complex, coloured prints. Students are encouraged to utilize their creativity and experiment with designs and various colours to achieve unusual effects. Explore new ideas and have plenty of fun in a bright and airy studio space. By the end of the class, students will have multiple prints to roll up and take home and proudly put on display!
