Shopping online can be frustrating and overwhelming if you’re a beginner and not quite sure what you’re looking for. The team of artists and teachers at Handprinted have curated a range of kits and bundles to introduce a specific technique with everything you need to get started.
‘We want customers to be able to purchase a bundle or kit and be able to jump straight into making, for example the Linocut Bundle is made up of the products we use during our beginner linocut Fab Friday workshop. Available with water-based or oil-based ink to suit the printmakers preference. The kit is the bones of their practice which can then be added to through coloured inks or different papers.’
The products in each kit are considered and selected so that the printmaker starts their practice with good quality but affordable tools.
Handprinted have collaborated with printmaker and artist Sue Brown in the creation of this fantastic kit that includes everything you need to make your own paper lithography prints at home. It makes a great pairing with Sue Brown’s book Paper Lithography.
Paper Lithography is a quick technique in which prints can be taken from laser prints and photocopies and added to sketchbooks, paper or mixed media pieces. It is sometimes called gum arabic transfer or toner lithography.
For this technique Handprinted recommend you will also have some baking paper, magazine sheets, and vegetable oil (for cleaning up) to hand.
