Hand Printing Happiness

Hand Printing Happiness is an online, 8-week printmaking course that will teach you printing techniques, from playful, loose, hand mono printing, to intentional, beautiful prints and beyond – and all from your own home, with no printing press required. Enrolment opens again in early 2027.

It is a self-paced video course, with new videos to watch every week, lifetime access, plus a supportive online community and online Q&A from me, it will gently guide you through setting up your printmaking studio at home, to making complete, finished artwork on paper to elevating your art practice after the course.

“I’m having a blooming lovely time working through all your videos. Made piles of prints. Totally hooked. Most creative thing I’ve done in ages!”

I’m inspired by the landscapes of South-West England and beyond. My motivation is to express the way I feel about these places, and to represent nature and light using a mix of techniques. You can buy original artwork directly from me, delivered to your home.

An effect of texture and translucency being something between an old Italian fresco, an English landscape painting and a Japanese woodblock print
