Botanical Linocuts with Yoshi Nakagawa

June 8th, 10am-3pm
 
Let the land inspire your art! Learn relief printmaking techniques—carving linocuts and hand printing with oil-based ink on Kozo (Mulberry) washi paper. We'll walk around the farm to get inspiration from the land and plants, draw and transfer botanical images on linoleum, and carve so they're ready to print. Yoshi will guide you through each process and demonstrate techniques to create simple but beautiful images. You’ll go home with two prints, your linocut, and skills to print more!
 
All workshops take place at Wild Dreams Farm and Seed and include a farm grown lunch, tea, and a farm tour.  
 
Cost including materials: $95.00
 
As part of our commitment to inclusivity and equity we are offering BIPOC scholarships for each workshop.  There is no application- only a desire to attend.  Please email  jennifer@ wilddreamsfarm.org to claim your spot.
