Exploring Relief Printing: Maui Farm Events x East Wind Print Co.

Beginner-Friendly Relief Printing Class in a Beautiful Garden Setting

In this beginner-friendly class we will be exploring the exciting world of relief printing. This medium is an excellent introduction to printmaking, giving you the opportunity to create your own unique art prints from start to finish as you learn a new medium in a beautiful garden setting.

Students will work through the steps of developing their images, transferring them onto a soft rubber carving block, and then carving the image out by hand. When the carving process is done, you will print your masterpiece onto acid free art paper using professional printmaking ink to create a collection of prints that will be yours to take home and proudly display!

To keep this class achievable within a short timeframe, we will focus on keeping our artworks smaller scale. Participants will carve a 4×6 inch easy carve soft rubber bock and the final prints in your collection will be 5×7 inches, a perfect size for easy and affordable framing.
