Aims and Objectives - Linocut Masterclass: Handprinted Greetings Cards

Описание: This special linocut masterclass is PACKED full of advice and practical demonstrations as I open up my home studio and show you my exact processes and techniques as a linocut artist. The course is broken down into six separate sections that each explain a stage of the process. Each section is further broken down into lessons and videos, which you can work through in order and tick off as you go along.

With detailed explanations and over-head videos of me actually preparing, cutting and printing, this really is the perfect class for those wishing to be truly proficient in Linocut.
