Enjoy exploring printing techniques with printmaker Ellen Love.
Design and print your own repeat pattern. Learn how to make a never ending repeat pattern through a satisfying trick in print-making! Take inspiration from the works of the artist Patrick Heron, who painted in Porthmeor Studios and was influenced by repeat pattern, as you design your prints.
For children aged 7-12, these Summer workshops are like no other, where children get to work in our studio overlooking the sea and use the same high art quality materials as our adult courses. They are taught by experienced artist tutors and leave feeling inspired with beautiful work.
