Planning expressive prints
This Art and design video introduces learners to relief printmaking through lino printing, using their memory drawings as inspiration. Learners explore how carving or pressing into a surface creates bold, expressive prints. They also discover how artists like Elizabeth Catlett use line and texture to communicate emotion and tell stories. Leanrers begin transforming their drawings into designs ready to transfer to printing plates.
This video is part of Kapow’s Art and design resources, which support the Cambridge Primary Art & Design Curriculum Framework (0067). As part of the Drawing: Expressive drawing and mark making unit, this lesson helps learners develop skills in composition and visual storytelling through the medium of printmaking.
