Learn the basics of cutting a linoleum block and printing on the Vandercook proof press.
During the first meeting on Tuesday evening, students will be introduced to the techniques of image transfer and the tools and materials for cutting the blocks. Students will participate in the methods with hands-on exercises, and at the end of the session will be ready to cut their blocks at home.
When the class reconvenes on Saturday, students will use the Vandercook proof press to print their blocks on archival printmaking paper suitable for framing.
