Wednesday Night Workshop - Joao Incerti, Kitchen Sink Painters and Lino Printing

Join us for an evening of creativity and relaxed art making amongst friends at July’s Wednesday Night Workshop.

This month, we continue our exploration of the ABC’s of art with J for Joao Incerti, K for Kitchen Sink Painters and L for Lino Printing. Inspired by the imagery and style of Joao Incerti’s artworks and the Kitchen Sink Painter’s documentation of everyday life, spend time creating a lino print that celebrates your everyday. Led by artist Yaz Gaté, over two hours participants will design, carve and print an artwork using lino relief printing techniques.
