Printmakers have something to say and want to leave an impression.   This course will help students to do just that: creating a well thought out design, transferring it to a block, and carving then printing it.  Students will leave with many copies of their hand made work to keep or to distribute.  All materials provided.   The three sessions are designed as follows:

Session 1: Designing and carving a greeting card or postcard

Session 2: Designing and carving a landscape

Session 3: Hand printing with ink
