In this introductory course by NRCG exhibiting artist and long-time local Steven Giese, participants will learn basic relief printing from lino block, and the methods of designing and making prints with simple, accessible tools, easily replicable in the home environment without the need for a professional printing press. The one-day workshop will include a look at the history of printmaking, examine the work of some notable practitioners, and Steven will share tips and tricks from his own artistic practice. Participants will complete the workshop with at least one finished edition of prints to take home.

Steven Giese is a Northern Rivers artist whose work ranges from the decorative to the political, and whose recent work in particular responds to environmental issues. Steven’s exhibition Mirror of Ink will be on view at the Northern Rivers Community Gallery from 11 January until 5 March 2023.

Participants will need to bring a wooden spoon, and robust clothing that can get inky. All other tools and materials will be provided.
