Have you ever dreamt of making beautiful prints and stamps? In this class I will teach you many ways of printing without the need of a press. We will explore stamp making, lino cutting, gelli plate printing, monoprinting on plexiglass and dive into some mixed media projects. We will make our own collage papers and a handmade artjournal with interesting and layered backgrounds for you to be inspired by.
Each technique has it’s own advantages and I will tell you all about them. I will also show you how I go about trouble shooting. But most importantly, this class is stuffed with fun and playful projects and tips and tricks to keep you inspired for a long time!
This class has 4 chapters (more on that below) and 26 in depth lessons.
This class is for anyone who loves to experiment in a manner that embraces happy accidents.

There are 26 lessons and even more projects. I show you the whole process. When a print “fails”, I will take you with me on my trouble shooting journey.
