Introductory Linocutting Workshop

Recent reviews of Introductory Linocutting Workshop

• 5/5 from George Codsi, attended Sep 2026: Enjoyable and relaxed workshop. Created the linocut and printed it 3 ways, so walked away with the linocut and 6 different prints. Easier that I thought, and the prints looked great. But remember to bring a few printed A5 (half a standard A4 sheet) sized designs to create your linocut from.
• 5/5 from Yu Xuan Peh, attended Sep 2026: Kaya was so lovely and knowledgeable about linocutting. I had a great time with my friend and made beautiful prints to take home. Would highly recommend!

• 5/5 from Danielle de Simone, attended Aug 2026: Had a great time! Kaya was a fantastic teacher and got to take home plenty of prints I made! Thanks so much again Kaya!
• 5/5 from Kate, attended Jul 2026: What a fun class! Kaya is a fabulous teacher and we all walked away with a product to be proud of - she was patient, informative and encouraging; not to mention very generous in sharing her expertise/experience. This class was great for individuals, but would also be a fantastic group activity for the workplace, a club or a big group of friends. Like all good craft classes, the conversation was flowing amongst strangers. Thank you Kaya for a fun afternoon.

• 5/5 from Josie Samers, attended Mar 2026: Kaya was a great teacher - encouraging, helpful and really passionate about printing. It was fantastic to be able to choose your own design and take home four beautiful prints using different techniques and papers, and the linocut. Can’t recommend highly enough. Such a lovely, relaxing way to spend an afternoon. Thanks so much Kaya, and Baxter too!
• 5/5 from Helen Turnbull, attended Mar 2026: My adult daughter attended Kaya's workshop on a weekend. She is a true artist. She guided us in a caring but professional manner to create our lino cuts. Her equipment was all well maintained and her procedures easy to follow. We loved our time with her.

• 5/5 from Monika Strasser, attended Aug 2025: A very enjoyable 3 hour workshop. Kaya explained the process clearly and provided us with a variety of carving tools. I particularly liked that she took us through a number of printing methods so we were able to go home with 7 prints. Note: you need to be OK with dogs as her dog is present at the workshop. He is small and sweet but barks when guests arrive
• 5/5 from Catherine Ringi, attended Aug 2025: Teacher was lovely and explained everything clearly. I liked the small group. We were able to come home with several prints we made from scratch. It was really enjoyable.

• 5/5 from Kristina Chow, attended Jul 2025: I bought this linocutting class for myself and a friend for her birthday and we absolutely LOVED every minute of it. Kaya was friendly, relaxed and easy to talk to and her home studio was very cozy and comfortable to work in. She offered an array of tools for us to use and let us work at our pace whilst still offering guidance and support when needed. I cannot recommend this class highly enough. We're already discussing coming back with our partners for another class!
• 5/5 from Jessica Ross, attended Jul 2025: Very friendly and patient. Great to have a small class to get individual advice. Multiple prints using different techniques was wonderful so that I could continue doing hand prints at home. Thank you!
• 5/5 from Amelia Mahon, attended Jul 2025: Excellent class. Small class size. Access to different cutting tools, quality paper and different printing methods. Very supportive teacher, with great advice and lots of experience. Be prepared - you may leave with a sore hand but also with lots of beautiful prints!

• 5/5 from Jessica Buttriss, attended Jun 2025: Lovely laid back session, and everything you need is provided including cute dog for company. My first try at linocutting since back in my school days - very relaxing. Took home the plate and a number of prints. Can’t wait to try again!
• 5/5 from Lena Xiao, attended Jun 2025: I had so much fun in this workshop with Kaya and the group! I've got sore arms from carving (should have brought an easier image lol) but the result was so good making it all worth it! Thank you Kaya!
• 5/5 from Pamela Nasiakos, attended Jun 2025: Kaya was a delight. Nice, relaxed class. Happy with the end results!
• 4/5 from Robyn Damm, attended Jun 2025: My kids gifted me a ClassBento voucher and I decided to try Lino printing. It was a fun experience and I achieved some good results. The teacher had a very good variety of tools to use. I loved trialling different printing techniques to achieve different results. I would have liked to have been introduced to the other class participants
• 4/5 from Kaylene Felton, attended Jun 2025: So much fun!
• 5/5 from Alice Ewing, attended May 2025: My Mum and I had a great time doing this workshop with Kaya (and her lovely wee dog Baxter) - we learnt so much and it was amazing to see all the ways we could do the printing! Highly recommend!
• 5/5 from Karen Sayer, attended May 2025: Had a great afternoon carving out my lino fish with 3 lovely participants. This small class meant we each got lots of individual attention. Our teacher was really friendly and talented and even though I am new to this, I was very happy with the results!
• 5/5 from Lee, attended May 2025: Lovely step by step introduction to this class and came away with my completed 'artwork' printed off feeling I had learnt so much. Thank you!
• 5/5 from Chloe Macmillan, attended May 2025: Kaya was a great teacher - gave us everything we needed to make beautiful linocut prints. Very chill vibe, all materials provided, and awesome results. Highly recommend!
• 4/5 from Millicent Troon, attended May 2025: Kaya was clearly very knowledgable and passionate about Linocutting. It was a good starting point to understand basic processes in linocutting. The class was held at a private residence, which was not sign posted and a little difficult to find. It was only when I spotted art tools at the window sill that I realised I had the right address. I did find barking pet dog a little distracting, perhaps some background music would be nicer. Class went for 2hrs, not 3 as advertised. Learned about tools and products to use. Would have liked some more instruction on cutting techniques and how to obtain certain effects, there is definitely some skill involved. I was quite happy with my finished piece, although I think I should have kept it simpler.
• 5/5 from Siyun Huang, attended Apr 2025: Kaya is very lovely and patient teacher! I really love the class.
• 5/5 from Laura Phypers, attended Mar 2025: The teacher was great and I loved the class and my final result.
• 5/5 from Laura Thomas, attended Mar 2025: A wonderful, relaxed class that does an excellent job at teaching the basics. Our teacher was very patient and knowledgeable and provided great feedback during the whole process. Would definitely recommend!
• 5/5 from Brittany Grantham, attended Feb 2025: Awesome class, thank you!
• 4/5 from Mikayla Draper, attended Feb 2025: Our teacher was passionate, friendly, and helpful. She showed us all of her designs to help us with our own. She gave us each a A6 piece of lino that we drew our design on, and then showed us the tools and gave us scrap lino to practice before starting. Once our designs were done, we did a practice print, and then she showed us how we can print from the lino stamp in 3 different ways - with the print press, and two hand pressing. We then got to choose what type of print we wanted for the shiny paper. At the end of the class, she did a ghost stamp to dry our lino stamp. We then left with our lino stamp and 5 prints from our lino stamp. Definitely would recommend, made us want to do lino printing more often.
• 5/5 from Bonney Corbin, attended Jan 2025: A lovely workshop, walking away with an A5 lino cut and a series of cute prints on different types and forms of paper. It packs a lot of learning into a short time, great value and makes for a colourful afternoon. The venue is an artsy ground floor room in the host's house, which feels like a creative and kind space.
• 4/5 from Olga Kustova, attended Jan 2025: Linocut printing is a lot of fun! Kaya was very helpful, and demonstrated different printing techniques. As someone who never did linocutting before, it would be great to get some theoretical knowledge on linocutting as a technique, on it's history or about the artists working in this style.
• 2/5 from Bill, attended Jan 2025: -small room -very hot in own house
• 5/5 from Nicole Soden, attended Nov 2024: Information and relaxed class. The small class size enabled enough one-on-one support. Really useful to have lots of different tools available for carving. Completely one linocut and printed using different techniques. The hand printing method is easily achievable at home
