Here she packs up orders with her 2 Artist friends – fitting in some of her own creative work when time allows.

Linocut is a super easy activity with great results. Made popular by Picasso & Matisse, you will work with lino cutting tools to carve your design onto a lino sheet. Work with Catherine’s templates or come up with your own idea – plenty advise available to show you a best approach.
In this beginners class, Catherine has plenty examples for ideas from her own work and past students. Make this as easy or difficult as you like! Use any of Catherine’s 20 ink colours or mix your own. Also try out the print press. Work onto papers or make your own cards/postcards. You will be working with your own printing kit with an option to buy this kit at the end of the workshop so you can continue being creative at home.
