Lino-Printing Workshop

I LOVED my print making class I recently took with Kim Minuti. I had a series of 4 one on one classes that covered the basics of printmaking, and focused on mono printing and Lino cut. I thoroughly enjoyed the classes especially Kim's creative eye and gentle fun manner. And who knew you could create something so interesting with a couple of leaves and some paint! She has inspired me to carry on creating at home - especially the Lino cut work which doesn't require a press. Kim was supportive providing interesting social media links to follow for inspiration, as well as loaning me some books to learn more about the background of print making. I thoroughly enjoyed everything about the classes and look forward to coming back for more later in the year. Thank you Kim!

Loved Kim’s Lino print workshop and I’ve become a convert. Kim was so welcoming, enabling and encouraging. Lovely workspace. And Kim makes a great Victoria Sponge cake as well!

I learned several methods of printmaking in a very friendly and relaxed setting. Kim is a very good teacher, being both patient and informative, showing us practical ways of learning .

Lovely workshop with Kim who is supportive and friendly and really helped me free myself up - I hadn’t done much printing for a while. Lots of experimenting with new techniques and ideas, lots of play... but I also came away with a few prints that I like enough to put up on the wall!

Kim is a fantastic teacher. Learned a lot in just three hours and inspired to do more. Also a great host with fabulous coffee and cake!

What a brilliant workshop! Kim is a great teacher - I learnt how to transfer my design onto tiles and cut and print them; also different techniques for various effects on paper and fabric. She also teaches screen printing, amongst other things. Would definitely recommend - can’t wait to do more workshops with her. Thanks Kim.

I really recommend this lino print workshop with Kim. I learned a lot, came away with a lot of good prints and felt very inspired. Kim gave me space, time and equipment to be creative and try out lots of new things. She has a lot of experience that she is very generous at sharing and she is truly passionate about print making and creativity and this comes through in her teaching. I think that Kim's style and workshop would work for people who haven't done anything creative since childhood and want to have fun or for people who have done an art degree and want to get learn more about print making. I have done an art degree, but hadn't done print making in a very long time and Kim's workshop gave me the confidence and experience to try more print making. I am going to use one of the pieces that I created in her workshop the Dulwich Artist Open House Festival in May 2020.

I had a lovely afternoon. Kim was welcoming and friendly and very knowledgable, and we all came out with something we were pleased with. We were also supplied with coffee and delicious cake! My only recommendation would be to bring a design that is not too complicated (or Kim will help you find one) or you might spend the whole session cutting out your print rather than practicing the printing.

This was an excellent workshop which I enjoyed very much. Kim was an excellent teacher, kind, friendly and patient and very helpful to everyone. I would be happy to return for another workshop and would happily recommend her to anyone else.

I loved the class. Very easy to find and after class I was just taking pictures, because the naborhud was so beautiful. Kim was really friendly, welcome and helpful every step. I learned new ways to do lino prints, that I didn't know about. The coffee and the cake was a really nice treat.

Kim is an expert teacher and a professional printmaker so she really knows her stuff ! She is very patient and personable encouraging her Students to progress at their own pace . I learned so much about reduction lino print and look forward to returning to the class very soon ! The venue is lovely small classes and great cakes and coffee at break time ! Highly recommended as a work shop leader and a lovely person too .

Kim is a brilliant teacher! She is always really helpful technically and is full of creative and useful tips.The venue is bright and cheery, Kim has her own art work on display. To show you what can be achieved!I have experimented with lots of different printing techniques, lino, dry point and colorgraph. I I enjoy my classes immensely, and really feel I have gained new friends and and lots of printing skills, and lastly Kim makes the best cakes you are ever going to eat!.

I have done lino-printing before, but a long time ago, so it was useful to see how the material has advanced. Kim provided new-style 'lino' and tools and gave me an informative print out of different styles of printing that could also be available in the class. It was a relaxed and very friendly class, the other people attending had been for different lengths of time and their work was very inspiring. Kim left me to have a go and find out what I could do, but equally was on hand to give advice or offer examples of what could be achieved. I was made to feel welcome straight away and would absolutely recommend the workshop. You can easily go home with a print you have done in the class!

This is a wonderful class. Kim is inspirational and fun as well as being a professional teacher. I’ve been going to her classes for a year. We try all types of printmaking and Kim encourages us to experiment and define our skills. The sessions make me happy, my work is improving........and her home made cake is divine!

Kim is warm, fun and a great teacher. Her workshops are wonderful and even as a complete beginner you learn so much and you can create your own beautiful art to take home. Kim’s studio is bright and calm, and she prepares the most delicious homemade treats. A lovely experience that I highly recommend.

I have just completed two printmaking classes with Kim at her home studio and I cannot praise her enough for the experience. Not only is Kim an extremely knowledgeable and inspiring teacher but she has the ability to coax out the inner printmaker in all of her students. She was on hand to give me advice at every point of the printing process, which made me feel totally at ease while I was working. Kim encourages you to use a range of coloured inks and paper and to experiment and incorporate other materials making the whole experience a wonderfully creative occasion. I was so thrilled with my final prints that I think I’m going to get a couple of them framed!

Very creative friendly workshop great coffee and cake

Fantastic class - as a beginner I have found Kim is an extremely friendly, patient and understanding teacher. The class is small and great fun, with people of a range of abilities who are also very supportive!! The venue in Kim’s home is light, airy and well equipped- with Bess the printing machine ready and waiting to be fed! I have improved my skills in a few short weeks and am inspired to continue my printmaking journey. And then there is the fresh coffee and delicious homemade cake- who could ask for more?! Love this class!!
