Relief printmaking is the process of carving out areas from a block of wood, linoleum or soft rubber to create an image that will be inked and transferred to paper. Small gouges are used to carve away the negative areas (white spaces) of an image leaving the positive areas (the picture) on the surface of the block. In this course, students will use unmounted flexible linoleum to create an edition of linocut prints. Furthermore, the safe handling of tools and materials, developing a suitable image as well as carving and printing the linoleum block will be demonstrated. No prior printmaking experience is required. This is a fun, guided process which will take you step by step. All tools and materials will be provided. 
Please note: This class requires some hand dexterity to maneuver the carving tool. Participants should feel comfortable using tools with sharp blades and edges.
