Beginner Printmakers

 Recently I ran a 2 day workshop at the Embroiderer's Guild in Melbourne.  The students created a number if different types of print.
Firstly they made  several simple relief prints using compressed foam and polystyrene, then a transfer print creating  print of textural surfaces.
The next day the students made 2 different relief prints using Lino and Soft cut print blocks.
Here are some photos of the different prints made, some were over printed a couple of times to create a layered effect.
