Michelle HughesLinocut Printing Workshops - November 2019
Updated: Jan 17, 2020
This month I'm teaching 4 introduction to linocut workshop in my York garden studio.
Some linocut prints are presents so I've cropped the final image to a small part of the design and mark making just in case they're spotted online.

Linocut workshops and courses
My linocut workshops are all held in my York print studio. I teach in small groups of no more than four people, so that everyone gets lots of one to one tuition.
