Wood Engraving Master Class - Angie Lewin


On this weekend course, work with acclaimed printmaker and artist Angie Lewin to create your own beautiful and delicate wood engravings.

This weekend course takes place Saturday-Sunday on the:

28&29 June 2025

15&16 November 2025

Wood engraving is a relief printmaking process which, in contrast to woodcut, is generally smaller scale and involves engraving into the end-grain of a prepared woodblock. This method can reproduce fine detail and create a lively graphic image.

During this course, you will produce a black and white print having learnt all stages of the process: transferring your initial drawing onto your woodblock, learning how to use the different engraving tools to create texture and line, and finally making prints from your woodblock. Wood engraving is a slow but satisfying process.

Ideally you may have some drawing skills to benefit from this workshop, but this is not essential, and this course will suit all artists.
