If you’ve never tried printmaking this is a great way to be introduced. I’ll provided images for you to trace if you are not a drawer, carving tools designed for beginners, and an easy to carve printing block. You’ll be surprised at how satisfying it is to carve! We finish by printing our newly carved design onto greeting cards. Everyone will leave with their own set of handmade cards.
For experienced printmakers you can bring your own tools and images to work with.
