Full-day advanced color linocut workshop
Discover the secrets of linocut at a one-day workshop from 10am to 6pm in Saint-Dié-des-Vosges. The workshop is open to all, whether you’re a beginner or an expert. Supervised by a professional engraver, this workshop will introduce you to the « bleed » technique, enabling you to superimpose several colors on a single die for a unique result.
From preparing linoleum dies to printing with water-based inks, you’ll master every stage of this creative process. Patience and precision will be your best allies in creating your own works of art.
The workshop, limited to 5 participants for personalized guidance, takes place in a warm and intimate setting. Whether you come alone or in a group, you’ll benefit from special attention to refine your technique. All necessary materials are provided, and no drawing skills are required.
Don’t wait any longer for this unique artistic experience! Come away with a series of prints you’ve made yourself, and let your creativity flow. Book now for one of the three dates on offer!

Turbochat! - Clémentine Eschenbrenner
I'm a versatile artist and craftswoman born in 1987 in Saint-Dié, Vosges, where I still live with my elderly cats, wool sweaters, hatred of capitalism and piles of books threatening to collapse. My first passion is bookbinding, which I've been self-taught since 2009, with the philosophy that anything can become a book, and anyone can make a book.
I'm also a draughtsman, author, painter, linocutter, embroiderer, papermaker and micro-publisher of small magazines and artist's books. On this platform, I offer courses for all ages and levels, in my own workshop in Saint Dié and other locations.
I'm passionate about natural materials such as cotton, wool, linen and silk. I'm fascinated by traditional textile arts, especially those from the East, ancient motifs, bright colors and handmade paper. I love paper in all its forms, and each technique is a way for me to explore and express the richness and diversity of this incredible material.
My aim is to capture a beauty that, while not spiritual, is sacred in my own way.
In my daily life, I am politically committed to social justice, equality, feminism and popular education. I believe that art should be a common good and a tool for social transformation, not a privilege reserved for the few.
