Spend four winter and spring mornings exploring the rich, diverse styles of art history on the gelliplate. No drawing skills required!
Looking for a regular creative sanctuary to see you through the winter months and into the first burst of spring? This exclusive block booking guarantees your space on all four of our upcoming artist-inspired gelliplate workshops.
Over these four unique sessions, you will transform your monotype printing practice. You will explore everything from stark Scandi-noir designs and hypnotic botanical geometries to minimalist mid-century colour blocks and elegant vintage textile prints.
By committing to the full block, you will build a thorough foundation in multi-layered printing, mastering masking, toolmaking, registration, and much more.
Leave with the skills and confidence to continue your printmaking journey at home.
The Four Sessions Included:
• 23rd January: Inspired by Sybille Schenker: Midwinter Woods – Folk Art Monoprints
• 27th February: Inspired by Peter Randall-Page: In Mind of Botany – Seed Stencils & Stamps
• 20th March: Inspired by Matisse: Spring Awakening – Graphic Cut-Outs
• 24th April: Inspired by William Morris: Arts and Crafts Botanicals
**Please see individual listings for more details of each session.
Gelli printing is fast-paced, highly therapeutic, and deeply satisfying. Because the process is entirely about texture, colour, and pattern rather than precise drawing, it is completely impossible to get it wrong.
You will leave each workshop with a collection of your own unique multi-layered prints.

January 2027 to April 2027: 23/01; 27/02; 20/03; 24/04 (to avoid main holidays)
