Block printing workshop

I attended a block printing workshop at Tara Dennis store in Wahroonga.
Unusually, but successfully, we used chalk paint instead of block ink.

We made our own blocks in different ways, and also printed onto fabric,
paper, cards and envelopes.

We used cut apples, chokos, and eggplants. Fashioned rubber stamps by
carving into erasers.

Little blocks of wood were wrapped in string or rubber bands.

Masking off with painting tape and using a roller made stripes.

Foam food trays were inscribed with biro pens and made into printing
plates as well.
