Dispatches from Dublin:
The Trinity Arts Workshop
Contributor post by Emily Westbrooks of From China Village
Hi Poppytalk readers!
A few weeks ago, I signed up for a lino-printing course
through Trinity College. The Trinity Arts Workshop
runs classes all throughout the school year that are
open to the public. Their motto is Art for Everyone
- great, huh?!
But the best part? These classes are great for locals
and tourists alike. What better souvenir of your travels than
a print or painting you made on your trip?
The classes are all held in a small studio right on the back side of
the Trinity College campus - I almost felt like a Trinity student
walking in for my class. The studio is dark and cozy, with sketches
and drawings from the other classes hung all over the walls and
easels scattered everywhere.
Marta Wakula-Mac, a Polish-born lino artist with a sweet Etsy shop,
teaches the three-hour Saturday lino-printing classes every other
week throughout the school year. Marta is really friendly, gives clear
instructions, and is the perfect instructor for beginners or more
intermediate lino artists.
The classes are all held in a small studio right on the back side of the
Trinity College campus - I almost felt like a Trinity student walking
in for my class. The studio is dark and cozy, with sketches and
drawings from the other classes hung all over the walls and easels
scattered everywhere.
We were encouraged to bring drawings or images for inspiration,
and I decided to use the quintessential Georgian Dublin door as
my inspiration. I think it would be so neat to come to Dublin for
a visit, take a few photos of something in the city that's inspired
you, then make a lino-print of it to take home as a souvenir! You
could even stop into the National Gallery right around the corner for
some inspiration on your way. And if you're traveling with not-so-arty
companions, you can send them to the Trinity Science Gallery and
the Book of Kells inside the campus while you're taking a class!
Until next time, slán abhaile!
