LinocutBoy workshop

Nick Morley aka Linocut Boy came to college to give us 3rd years a workshop in lino cutting and printing.

Nick Morley is an artist and illustrator based in Margate. 

I had a great couple of days and used Nick's vast knowledge of printing and lino cutting to create an illustration based on a nursery rhyme (I chose the Owl and the Pussycat). 

Here is a link to one of LinocutBoy's videos showing how he creates his prints:
