The village of Sanganer, near Jaipur, India has been a major center for very fine block-carving and printing. Many delightful designs are printed on fine cotton material and silk, using finely carved blocks with motifs inspired by nature. This course will cover many traditional Sanganeri hand block printing techniques. Participants will practice by creating paper greeting cards using pre-carved wooden blocks, followed by block printing on fabric. Open to beginners as well as experienced printers.
