The Art of Soft Block Printing Workshop
This preliminary workshop explores the medium and art of soft block printing.
It can be taken at your leisure, from the comfort of your own home!
Want to take it on a Sunday night?
Spread the lesson throughout the week? It's entirely up to you!
*There is no scheduled meeting time to take this workshop.*
With all the tools and tutorials included, you will be able to create unique rubber stamps for your own personal use!
Stamps can be made from original artwork, photographs, and doodles. If you don't enjoy drawing, you can modify an existing image or play with texture stamps.
Hels will take you on a tour of the materials, how to use them, the process of carving a stamp, and how to print using small stamps and larger carved blocks.
She will also show you how to mount a stamp to a wooden base, take you on a loose sketching meditation, and show you other media to use for inspiration.
In addition to the tutorial videos, supplies, and bonus materials, Hels will be available to communicate with throughout your stamp carving venture.
E-mail her at hels8bells@gmail.com or message her on Instagram @ohelsbells to share your progress, ask a question, or share any feedback.
