On June 6, locals gathered at the Sunshine Library for a linoprinting workshop led by the talented Sally Walshe, also known as Lady Mohawk.

With nearly 15 years of printmaking experience, Sally guided participants through the art of linocut printmaking.

During the three-hour session, attendees learned various techniques, from design and transferring to carving, inking, and printing their own original pieces. By the end of the workshop, everyone left with their unique carved linocuts and several linoprints to show for their efforts.

This event was part of the INfuse Artist Networking program, which aims to connect creative individuals in the west, offering a platform for networking, sharing ideas, professional development, and mutual support.

Star Weekly photographer Damjan Janevski took a trip to the Sunshine Library to capture the creativity on show.
