Relief Printing Courses in London
Acting as both a simple format to make prints, yet a highly rewarding medium, working with lino or wood using relief printing processes always delivers. Using the big presses is a joy, however, our biggest asset in these beautiful processes are our tutors who all practice what they preach and will show you ways to strive and improve using deceptively simple techniques.
We offer courses for complete beginners in working with wood or lino, allowing for you to develop confidence in mark making, technical processes and becoming acquainted with the printmaking studio. If you’re a more experienced student, why not take on the challenge of working with more experimental techniques or working at a large-scale.
