In the third of the “More to Explore” lino printing sessions you will get the opportunity to learn reduction printing; the technique of carving the lino more than once and printing in layers – it’s fascinating, absorbing and hugely satisfying once you have learnt the technique. The technique can be used successfully with either complex or very simple lino cuts, so all levels of experience are welcome to join the workshop.

Melissa is experienced in teaching complete beginners as well as those who already lino print but want to find out more. During the session you will produce several colourful prints to take home.

Melissa Birch is an artist who exhibits locally & sells her prints on Etsy.com. With an MA in Fine Art, and 20 years teaching experience, she has the skills to help you enjoy your creativity too!
