William de Morgan
Lino Printing Course
The Summerleaze Gallery, East Knoyle, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP3 6BY
Summerleaze Gallery is situated in an exceptionally peaceful and beautiful corner of Wiltshire, yet within easy reach of London by road and rail. There are two beautiful exhibition galleries converted from farm buildings, each having a wonderful sense of space and light.
The course runs from the 30th June to the 3rd July 2020. The total cost is £425 which includes all materials ~ ( inks, cutters, paper etc.)
(the price also includes delicious home cooked lunch and refreshments throughout the day)
'Taking inspiration from the flora and fauna designs of William Morris and William de Morgan, you will learn to design and print your own repeating image. The design will be cut and printed from two separate lino blocks. Due to this method being multi-block as opposed to a reduction printmaking method, you will be able to continue printing at home on either paper or fabric using the same blocks. Throughout the lino printing workshop there will be step-by-step demonstrations on colour lino design, cutting and printing techniques. The course will enable you to produce high-quality lino prints at home without the need for a traditional printing press and with a minimum amount of space and outlay. You will also learn how to add gold, silver or copper leaf to your design, should you wish to add a touch of shimmer. Materials and suppliers will be discussed, and you will be given an illustrated booklet on the topics covered.'
