Join Sophie at the Crafty Egg on Church Road, for a two-hour evening workshop that's the perfect antidote to a long old day. Unwind with a playful and satisfying low-tech print process that gives quick but beautiful results. Sophie will show you the ropes!
Grab a drink at the bar to sip on whilst getting into the informal and playful creative process. You could even book a table at the venue before the workshop starts to enjoy one of their delicious pizzas.
In a friendly and supportive environment, you will learn printmaking tips and techniques, using small artist quality rollers with hand-cut paper stencils, provided. From here you'll build up your print onto paper or card. Discover the magic of materials that can create fantastic textures and wonderful gradients when built up into layers. Play around with shapes, colour or compositions. Sophie encourages you to experiment with this process, providing all the guidance and support you need along the way.
Within a couple of hours, you'll have:
No previous artistic experience is required, just an interest in learning a new craft. Here's some love from previous guests:
