The White Line Woodcut and Beyond with Kate Hanlon

The White Line Woodcut and Beyond

MEDIUM: PRINTMAKING

Kate Hanlon

The white line woodcut, also known as the Provincetown Print, is a uniquely American form of printmaking, invented by artists working in Provincetown in the early 1900s.  In this method, beautiful multicolor prints are printed by hand using a single block, eliminating the need for a press or complicated registration methods.  Students will have opportunity to learn traditional techniques of design, carving, and printing, as well as expand upon the tradition with creative inking and printing options to create contemporary interpretations of the medium.  Explore by adding a line block, carving with a Dremel tool or other nontraditional mark-making tools, or jig sawing your blocks into creative shapes, all in the spirit of experimentation.  Participants will leave with newfound skills and appreciation of the process.
