Recent reviews of Private Printmaking Class

  • 5/5 from Debbie Baishnab, attended Sep 2026: We had a really lovely evening. Paula is a brilliant teacher - warm, kind, welcoming and talked us through everything very patiently and clearly. It was great to have a go at something completely different and new… and see our prints slowly come together. We came away with some fab prints that we were all really proud of! Would highly recommend this workshop. A really fun, relaxing and enjoyable evening, with lots of giggles along the way. Thank you very much Paula
  • 5/5 from Stephanie Hill, attended Sep 2026: I really enjoyed the class. I’ve never done Lino printing before. Paula explained everything, there was plenty of time to experiment and she was very patient and encouraging throughout, I had fun and would like to try Lino printing again. Thanks!
  • 5/5 from Louise Ledgard, attended Jul 2026: Excellent afternoon with Paula. A customised print with 1-1 advice and support. Very pleased with what I produced from a holiday photograph.
  • 5/5 from Conor Nellis, attended May 2026: We had a lovely morning creating vinyl prints. Very relaxed, welcoming and engaging host (great coffee too!) We made several prints based on our initial etching. It was a lovely way to spend the morning and we will love having the prints up in our home. Thank you.
  • 5/5 from Kate Maccarron, attended Feb 2026: An excellent class. Paula was patient, kind, expert and inspiring. I thoroughly enjoyed the process and was so happy with what I was able to create. I'd highly recommend it.
  • 5/5 from Hunter Taglieri, attended Jan 2026: Honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better teacher. Paula was incredibly welcoming and created such a wonderful experience. She shared fascinating insights about art and travel, while also guiding us through the tools and techniques of lino printing with clarity and enthusiasm. For our very first attempt, we achieved results that far exceeded my expectations. I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone!
  • 5/5 from Angela Morris, attended Jan 2024: Paula was fantastic. What a wonderful mother and daughter workshop. She personalized the experience so we were both able to upskill and benefits from her knowledge and experience. Hopefully we can return to the quaint little workshop once we have practiced what we learned. Thank you Paula for being such a patient and inspirational teacher.

I am a fine art graduate and art teacher up to A Level and GCSE. I am also a professional artist specialising in lino printing. I have discovered that printmaking is a perfect process for creating art that celebrates the natural environment and it enables me to make images of the places I love to explore.
I love making lino prints and want to share my skills with you. I always thought print making was for other people until I began to experiment with the process and have not looked back. I make very detailed and experimental prints. I want to help you discover the artistic possibilities print making provides.
Some of my work can be found in the Whitworth Art Gallery Shop and the Manchester Museum.
