Description

New for 2026 we're really pleased to welcome Helen and her fun and colourful workshop to the Quirky Programme.

The session will begin with a short demonstration to explain the painterly process. You will then choose a favourite image from a range of landscapes, seascapes, flowers and still life. This image is then put under a sheet of plastic and the ink is then painted onto it; you'll have a lot of fun creating and mixing each colour you wish to use, from the range of supplied inks!
Then the magic happens: once the image has been painted on, a print is taken from it. The first pull creates the strongest and brighter of the prints, then once the inks have been flattened out by the first roll, the second pull is more subtle and nuanced. You will have 2 prints to take away with you.

This class is suitable for beginners and beyond.
