Drawing into print - 2 day workshop

In-person at my studio | 28th Feb-1st March 2026 10.30-4.30pm = only 4 places available

If you’ve ever wanted to draw with me and print with me, this is the workshop for you — the best of both worlds!

Over two inspiring days, we’ll explore how drawing can lead naturally into printmaking. On the first day, you’ll work from an extravagant still-life setup — rich with colour, texture and pattern — learning to look closely and draw with freedom and confidence. We’ll use a range of materials and also experiment with transfer monoprint, a playful way to turn your drawings into prints straight from the page. This day is all about taking the fear out of drawing and finding joy in observation.

On the second day, you’ll choose one of your drawings or monoprints to develop into a linocut print. You’ll learn how to simplify and adapt your image, carve your block, and print your design using traditional tools and techniques. We’ll experiment with papers, colours and composition — exploring how your drawings can evolve beautifully into prints.

You’ll leave with a small edition of handprinted work, new drawing confidence, and the skills to keep printing at home.
Beginners are warmly welcome — I’ve designed this course to gently encourage you to draw, explore, and enjoy the creative process from sketchbook to print.
