In this workshop, you'll learn the basics of block printing by carving your own rubber stamps and turning them into beautiful prints.

We'll start with an introduction to tools and carving techniques. You'll then carve your own rubber stamps, creating 3–6 stamps depending on your pace and design complexity. In the final part, you'll design and print colourful cards using your handmade stamps, additional stamps from my collection, and other printing tools.

To create your stamps, you can choose designs from my illustration collection or bring your own ideas. I provide a range of beginner-friendly motifs that are specially selected for stamp carving, but you're welcome to personalise the experience with your own designs.

Once your stamps are ready, we'll explore colour, composition and layering to create a series of unique printed cards and small art prints. For this phase, you'll use your handmade stamps, alongside additional printing tools and stamps from my curated collection.

You don't need to bring anything. If you'd like, you're welcome to bring your own simple black-and-white illustration (max 9 x 15 cm) to carve.

The workshop takes place at Zwischenraum, a café and co-working space in Prenzlauer Berg.
