Ages - 16 and up
Saturday June 22nd, 11 - 2:30pm

Jill Sans, owner of The HeArt Box and artist, will be guiding this linocut workshop for ages 16 and up, all levels of creativity are welcomed. This workshop is for those who want to learn the art of linocut and how that can apply to textile fabric design.

We will be creating our own design onto our linoleum block, from there we will spend time hand carving and then printing on fabric. You will have time to print multiple prints, learning the techniques of printing from linoleum blocks. You will go home with finished printed pieces of fabric as well as your hand carved linoleum block to use again at home.

Block printing is a fun way to create and reproduce artwork and creating repeating patterns on fabric that can be used in projects.

Carving linoleum blocks is a fun and meditative way to spend your time. Printing your first print is very rewarding and magical!

Jill Sans of The HeArt Box has been creating one of a kind block print designs for over ten years in various different applications such as paper and textile art.
