About this course

Howdy, friend!

Have you ever seen beautiful textiles and wondered, “Wow! How is that made?” This class will teach you how to create your own custom fabric designs at home using the relief printmaking process (also known as block printing).

Liz is a printmaker, food illustrator, and farmer. Her artwork has been exhibited in galleries across the United States including New Jersey, New York, Washington D.C., Minnesota, and New Mexico. Her teaching experience includes the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, the Santa Fe Community College, Farmers’ Markets, and now Skillshare!

Liz’s experience will help you glide through the printmaking process using tips and tricks she has learned over the years to craft your final fabric print with ease.

In this class you’ll learn:

-how to create a powerful design that has oomph and impact

-how to transform your design into a custom stamp

-the best materials to use for this process

-two inking methods

-techniques that can be applied to more printed products!

You will create:

- a custom fabric print for your home (i.e. a dish towel, napkin set, or tote bag).

This class is for beginner printmakers. You will discover the joy of the printing process and how using functional art to add aesthetic beauty to your life can positively influence your day-to-day experiences.

You do not need to have any prior knowledge about this process, but it will be helpful if you have your materials ready to go when you start the class (you can also access the materials list with direct links to purchase in the Class Project section).
