This class, designed for students at all levels, explores the impact of contrast in a thoughtful composition, achieved through the carving process. Students will learn the basics of linoleum block printing, which includes carving linoleum blocks, inking them, and printing them. In addition, students will learn carving-specific techniques like cross-hatching, stippling, and line variation.
