White Line Woodcut Printing

White Line woodcut is a technique developed by Blanche Lazell in the 1920’s. Inspired by European modernism and American crafts techniques, Lazell developed this simple woodblock method to simplify some of the techniques used in Japanese woodblock printing. In this class, you will start with carving linear drawings in a pine block and then print multiple color areas using watercolor washes. This technique allows for multiple colors from one block and the results are painterly and textured. All levels are welcome.
