Printmaking for Wellbeing

UPDATED 20160725 10:23:51

Wellbeing courses are open to all but are particularly suitable for those adults looking to take part in a course that focuses on health and wellbeing opportunities, or for those adults with learning difficulties/disabilities seeking wellbeing opportunities, personal development and new skills. There are discounted rates available for those who meet certain criteria. See below for further details. This introductory course will enable you to explore the many possibilities of relief-based printmaking, and introduce you to the type of work that can be generated by different printmaking processes. Initially, you will make black and white prints from lino blocks using both hand burnishing and also the Columbian relief press. You will then further develop your understanding of relief printmaking by making coloured linocuts using the reduction method. As you progress you will explore new techniques and processes, including drypoint, etching and screenprint, if time allows. The work you make will be based on your own drawings and ideas. However, a project theme will be available from the tutor if required. You will learn through: • Practical hands-on experience • Tutor demonstrations, individual and group tuition • Exchanging ideas and experience • Investigating the work of artists and printmakers The results can be spectacular, and the pleasure of the printmaking process is as much its own reward as the final printed result.
