During the workshop, we will plan and illustrate art for your 4” x 6” soft block, carve blocks using your artwork, practice printing single color prints with block printing inks, and discuss various methods and tools you can utilize for printing your blocks. Naomi will be bringing a variety of ink colors to try and her Woodzilla press for you to experiment with too! With our small workshop size of 4 students maximum, there will be plenty of time to talk with Naomi one on one about your art, techniques (including 2-color gradients!), and any questions you may have.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRequired: Please bring your own lino cutter tool and gouges to the workshop!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOptional: Bring in any carved blocks you would like to try printing with (as time allows) and if you have specific tools (brayer, baren, etc.) you have already purchased, you’re welcome to use them during the workshop.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSunday, July 26\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1 - 5 PM\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTicket: $160 \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cem\u003eBring your own linocut gouges!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe workshop fee includes materials and shared tools we will be using during the workshop: water-soluble block printing ink, 4” x 6” Speedball Speedy Carve Block, tracing paper, printing paper, barens, brayers, expendables, etc. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt the workshop Naomi will provide a list of recommended materials you can easily purchase at Michael’s or Blick so you can continue with your block printing journey at home!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003ePlease email both\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003ca href=\"mailto:nellitascraft@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ehello.nellita@gmail.com\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"mailto:6degreesofhapa@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e6degreesofhapa@gmail.com\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e with any questions!
