Linocut workshop in Paris 17th district

Activity description :

Introduce yourself to a traditional linocut color printing technique with a professional artist. Pascale welcomes you to her Paris workshop, where you can learn to engrave and print your own 10x15 cm linocut plate in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

You don't need to know how to draw for this class: you're welcome to bring your own ideas, or feel free to use the templates provided.

Course of the workshop (2h30) :

• Introduction to equipment, technique and possibilities
• Preparing a transfer based on a drawing or model provided
• Learn to handle the gouge and engrave the plate.
• Exploration and choice of colors for printing
• Produce a small series of prints using the press.
• Each participant will leave with a plate and 3 prints.

Pascale will share her expertise and sociability with you, whether you're on your own, with family or friends, children or adults.

You'll leave with your prints, made on the workshop press, and the know-how to repeat the engraving experience at home.
