CLASS DESCRIPTION:

Curious about the world of printmaking but don’t know where to start?

Join artist Susan Lefler for a hands-on workshop where you'll turn everyday office supplies into custom works of art.

Unlock your inner maker in this beginner-friendly session focused on the art of relief printing. Instead of traditional wood or linoleum, we’ll be using soft erasers, the perfect entryway material for learning the basics of carving without the intimidation factor.

In this workshop, you will learn how to:

  • Design & Transfer: Sketch a simple motif and move it onto your carving surface.
  • Carve with Confidence: Master the use of linoleum carving tools to remove negative space and reveal your design.
  • Inking & Stamping: Learn the proper technique for loading your "stamp" with ink for a crisp, clean transfer.

You’ll walk away with your own hand-carved, reusable stamps and a personalized set of stationery and envelopes featuring your unique designs. Whether you want to create minimalist geometric patterns or whimsical floral designs, this class is the perfect way to make your mark.

All materials, from carving tools to premium cardstock, will be provided. No prior art experience is necessary.
