Course Description: 

Block printing is a relief printing technique that uses a carved material - usually linoleum, rubber or wood - to transfer ink onto fabric or paper. The block is essentially a stamp, with the final product a mirror image of the carving.

In this class you will learn how to carve an image of your choice into different sized rubber blocks and then use it to print. We will also explore Square Block Repeat and its endless possibilities.
Each participant will be able to print on archival quality paper, note cards, a small canvas drawstring bag and 2 cotton napkins.
