Over two days we will cover carving, relief printing, multiple block printing and intaglio printing with viscosity colours. It's going to be quite fast and we will make lots of images with interesting effects and both subtle and vibrant colours. If you have the following items please also bring them along: a plastic store card and a comb. A few colour pencils and a notebook might be good too (though not essential). Don't forget your apron and glasses if you need them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Tutor\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWuon-Gean Ho was born in Oxford, and graduated with a BA in History of Art from Cambridge University, before taking up a Japanese Government Scholarship in 1998 to study woodblock printmaking in Japan.
