Autumn Leaves Lino Print Workshop - Friday 24th September 2027
Autumn Leaves Lino Print Workshop
Join printmaker Sue Leech for an inspirational and creative printmaking workshop on the theme of autumn leaves. Using soft cut lino you will create a series of bold prints in autumnal colours.
No experience is needed as you will be guided through the process step by step and given individual advice.
In the morning you will cut out a variety of leaf shapes to use in your prints. The rest of the day will be devoted to inking up and layering your leaves to create a series of striking prints. This technique does not require a printing press so could easily be repeated at home. Sue will provide all the images you need to work from but you are welcome to bring your own photos or drawings of leaves if you wish.
Please bring an apron or old shirt to protect your clothes.
We will be printing with oil based inks and using vegetable oil and washing up liquid for cleaning up. No solvents will be used. Disposable gloves will be available if required.
Your tutor
Sue Leech is a printmaker based in Grange-over-Sands on the edge of the Lake District. From her studio overlooking Morecambe Bay, Sue creates limited-edition prints using linocut, collagraph and mono-print. Colour, texture and pattern are all key components in her work and contribute to her bold, illustrative style. Subjects are wide ranging although plants do feature extensively - often sourced from her own garden.
