Workshops, a Folksy sale, fairs and reduction linocuts

Hello there..


Just a few things to whittle on about..


Linocut Workshop
My next linocut workshop is on Sat 17th March, at The Crucible, Sheffield. This one is called 'Advanced Lino Printing', but is really just a workshop to explore further methods with linocut (2-colour, reduction printing and more one-colour composition. There are 9 places available, at £40 each, and this includes all materials and lunch! A link to book is here:

Then the next fair I will be attending will be the Buxton Artists & Designers Fair, held in the beautiful Buxton Pavilion. Should be fun!

Reduction Linocut Print
Its been a while, so I thought I'd have a go at a reduction linocut print. a scary method at the best of times (as once you've cut the first layer, printed it and started the next there is no going back!). Turned out ok, I reckon. Not sure what I'm going to do with the 'Grey Donkey' yet...
