Diana Woods-Humphery reviewed: Online Lino Printing Course with Oxford Linocut Workshops

"This course had been very well-prepared by Claire. She covered all the basics very thoroughly. She answered all questions patiently and informatively. It was only a shame that we ran out of time and could not quite complete a design."

"This was a most enjoyable course and a great way to learn something new. It’s really helpful to practice using my own equipment. Claire was a great teacher and has perfected the art of managing the online experience so you can see exactly what to do…probably better than face to face in fact! Thank you "

"Claire’s three hour course was very well organised so that we not only learnt a lot but had the opportunity to practice our new found skills. She made time to focus on our individual needs. Claire’s own work is beautiful to see and I felt lucky to be taught by someone so talented and proficient. She’s a delightful person too. "

"I really enjoyed the Lino cut workshop. Claire was very encouraging and inspiring, is obviously a very talented artist. She was able to pace the workshop in such a way that there was time to learn, time to have a go, and time to make a start on a Lino cut design. I liked the way Claire gave attention to us as individuals as well as taking us through the process together, step by step. By the end of the class I felt more confident in my ability to create some nice Lino cut designs."

"This was truly the best workshop I have ever attended. The venue and workshop are fascinating and Claire's teaching style is welcoming and thorough. I would thoroughly recommend her. Claire's knowledge is outstanding and she led us through the workshop in a methodical and careful manner enabling all to achieve. Lunch in a beautiful garden and refreshments supplied. What was not to like. I will be attending again and I am in the process of setting up my own lino area at home in response. Thank you Claire. "

"What a wonderful day! Claire was so friendly, welcoming and above all so knowledgeable. Her teaching style was calm, reassuring and motivating. The whole workshop was kept perfectly on track without ever once feeling rushed. I was so pleased with the printed fabric I went home with. I would love to return to try the printing on paper workshop as well. I can't recommend highly enough. Thank you Claire."

Philippa reviewed: Lino Printing Day with Oxford Linocut Workshops

"A really memorable course. Claire is very patient, calm and knowledgable. She took us through the various lino cutting techniques and helped as we all started our own designs. The end results were all fabulously individual and used so many of the techniques Claire had taught us. All taking place in a wonderfully rural studio setting with chickens running about outside! I will be back again, for sure."

Erica reviewed: Lino Printing Day with Oxford Linocut Workshops

"The course was perfectly structured for relative beginner to lino printing. Claire was really well organised, had everything set up when we arrived and kept the day flowing. She was helpful and supportive to individuals as well as keeping the group engaged. Some people had more illustrative experience than others but it really didn't matter as you could work to your own level. And the surroundings with Claire's amazing prints around you just further fed your wish to explore the subject further."

"This was a very slick, enjoyable and professionally run course. Claire the tutor gave very clear instruction which then gave us the confidence for when it came to doing our individual pieces. I thoroughly enjoyed the day and would recommend to anyone with an interest in art & craft. Prior to this day I’d only ever done one linocut and that was 46 years ago at school. This course is suitable for complete beginners as well as people more experienced at Lino cutting. "

Angela and Rosie reviewed: Lino Printing Day with Oxford Linocut Workshops

"Claires workshop was fabulous and the entire day was a real pleasure. The location in a beautiful barn in a gorgeous garden surrounded by lovely things only added to the experience. Claire’s patient, calm, step by step, skilled and intuitive teaching style meant we learnt so much and achieved beyond our expectations. Claire was organised, friendly and very professional. All the materials provided were set out with such meticulous detail and Claire made a real effort not only to check and support our work but also to include everyone and talk to us all. Claire had thought of everything and every part of the day was thought through from the pretty little name cards to refreshments and seating in the garden. "
