Lino Print with Collagraph Details at Cowshed Creative

Description

At Cowshed Creative in the Lake District, we run an extensive range of art, craft and heritage workshops in our beautifully converted art studio. Treat yourself to a creative experience on our traditional Lakeland farm near Windermere and Kendal. Be inspired by plant or animal imagery and learn how to create and print your own linocut. Sue will be guide you through each step of the process, sharing her expertise and providing invaluable tips. You will also have the opportunity to enhance your print using collagraphy; adding printed textures using a range of materials. No experience needed. In the morning you will create and cut out your design using lino and a selection of textured materials. The afternoon will be devoted to printing your design with lots of opportunity to experiment with over-laying colours and textures. Sue Leech studied illustration and printmaking at Camberwell School of Art. After a career teaching Art at Secondary school she now devotes her time to printmaking from her studio at her home in Grange-over-Sands. She considers experimentation to be a vital part of the creative process and uses linocutting, collography and mono-printing to convey the relationship between colour, texture and pattern. Sue exhibits her work with Cumbria Printmakers and Green Door Artists. Her work is also on display at Abi and Tom’s Garden Plants, Grange over Sands. The workshop will be at Cowshed Creative, in a stunning open plan space with plenty of room to wander outside and take inspiration from the amazing Lakeland landscape and environment of the peaceful Kentmere valley.
