Workshops and Classes

I organise short courses and workshops at Cardiff Print Workshop as well as outreach projects in schools, community centres and festivals. These sessions centre on a playful approach to printmaking with the aim of encouraging creativity through engagement.

I offer a range of printmaking techniques for children and adults including:

etching
monotype
flag and kite making
linocut
fabric printing
cyanotype photography
paper making
photo intaglio printing
book arts
chine colle
photocopy transfer

“I can personally recommend Bill and his courses. I have completed several of them and gone on to love printing, exhibiting my work across Wales. Just for fun or for a new passion, a great art form to learn.”

Workshops with Community Groups and Health settings

I work with Inside Out Cymru providing regular arts and crafts sessions centering on printmaking activities for groups interested in mindful creativity. I have also worked with dementia patients in hospital (Ysbyty’r Tri Chwm, Ebbw Vale) and people with early onset dementia in the community. I also work regularly with Horatio’s Garden at Llandough Hospital in Cardiff providing arts workshops for long term patients in the spinal injury ward.

Get inspired and learn new ways to look and draw. Participants are invited to take a walk using the Barry Drawing Book as your guide to a series of creative drawing exercises. The book is designed to challenge and delight artists of all ages and to encourage a creative response to the environment.
