How is the content delivered?
Great question. All lessons are available now. I believe that the best way for you to improve your skills is to make lots of marks. So the videos are short and meant to inspire you to action.
Does the class meet at a certain time?
No. You do not have to be at your computer at a specific time.
What type of computer or online skills do I need to participate?
You will need high speed internet access so that you can stream videos.
Students need one of these browsers up to date.

Do the videos have subtitles?
(The videos do not have subtitles, but there is a simple way of adding them if you use Chrome as your browser. It is easy to set up. The ‘Live Caption’ setting then adds English subtitles. You can find out how to set it up here.)
Who is this class for?
THE SOFT PLATE BLOCK PRINTING WORKSHOP is for anyone who would like to learn more about making their own relief printing block. You could be a complete newbie or you may be a seasoned teacher looking for new approaches and ideas. Block printing is a very direct way of making prints and marks. This course is about finding inspiration and tools to make unique blocks that tell your art making story.
How much time is required each day?
Hmmm. Required is a strong word. You get out of it what you put into it.
So that said, nothing is ever required. My hope is that you will be able to use this course to commit extra time to your art practice – maybe 30 to 60 minutes a day depending on what we are doing.
How are payments handled?
Major credit cards.
