Whether you're looking for ways to add some vibrant art to your walls or you simply fancy learning something new, this printing workshop will introduce the ancient art of woodcut printing using a still-life arrangement to draw from.

Hosted at the iconic House for an Art Lover in Glasgow, you'll learn how to carve out your design using traditional woodcut tools, how to use the tools to simplify objects into bold shapes, suggest tone through pattern and describe finer details using lines.

You'll enjoy tailored support from your tutor throughout the class, making it the ideal way to get started in this engrossing hobby. This workshop is brilliant for beginners or if you're taking a step up from Lino printing, but will also help you brush up on your traditional drawing techniques — you'll leave the class bursting with new skills!
