Learn to create beautiful and practical linocut prints at home with this contemporary guide to a well-loved traditional art form.
Linocut and screenprinting have undergone a resurgence in recent years. This book teaches the basic techniques for learning to make your own prints under the guidance and tutelage of expert teacher and artist Susan Yeates.



Susan, who runs her own print business, Magenta Sky, explains the rudiments of linocutting, and guides you through ten practical and attainable projects including greeting cards, artworks to frame, labels for jam jars, seed packets and bags or tea towels to print and give as personalised presents. There are handy tips and suggestions throughout the book and each project begins with a list of tools and materials needed.

Susan Yeates is a printmaker, tutor and published author. She has written and self-published four books including Learning Linocut (2011), an Amazon no. 1 best-selling printmaking book providing a comprehensive introduction to relief printing and Learn to Earn from Printmaking - An essential guide to creating and marketing a printmaking business (2016). Susan has been printmaking since she was at school. She obtained a printmaking degree from Loughborough University in the UK, and has been teaching printmaking courses and workshops since 2003. As well as spending time creating her own prints and drawings, Susan is a qualified yoga teacher and has a passion for combining mindfulness and art. Susan lives and works in Surrey, UK and continues to teach printmaking.
