"These weekly workshops proved fantastically popular earlier this year, and I cannot wait for the evenings to draw in and we can gather together again and have an evening focused on creating wood engravings together:"
These weekly workshops held in Keith Pettit's inspirational Studio, are intended for wood engravers who are seeking a focused time every week to immerse themselves in an atmosphere where they can push their engravings along, without interruption. The studio's extensive library on the art of wood engraving will be available, so to the studios antique 1849 Albion printing press and Keith's knowledge gained from 30 years of working in the medium is freely shared providing support and guidance.
Classes will run from 7 to 9.30 - 19th November '24 through to 25th March 2025. With a minimum 4 session commitment; £80.00. Some tools will be available to share. Blocks will be available to buy, please let Keith know your requirements.
we will again end our time together with an end of term show, where everyone is encouraged to contribute the fruits of their labours beginning on the 3rd of April.
If you would like to join us in the workshop but you've not had any experience of wood engraving, then it would be best to first enrol in the 4 week introduction to wood engraving. Either Pre Christmas HERE or in the New Year HERE
All students will have the workshop wood stove at their disposal!
Class sizes will be limited per session - therefore the booking (and deposit) will be first come first serve. You will be booked into the first available week and an email sent to confirm the dates with an invoice for the balancing payment in the weeks leading up to the course starting.
Disability access isn't great unfortunately. The studio is in an old converted service station and it has steps into the entrances and the studio has a split level with steps.
