Block printing

Block printing is a traditional art form that has been cherished for centuries. It involves using hand-carved wooden blocks to print designs on fabric and paper. This method of printing is not only an artistic endeavour but also a preservation of cultural heritage. Skilled local artisans intricately carve the wooden printing blocks used in this craft, and by supporting this art, you are helping sustain their livelihoods and the rich tradition of block printing.

Each block is a work of art, handcrafted with precision and care. The purchase price of these block sets, which includes the cost of the blocks, is designed to make it easier for enthusiasts to start or continue their block printing journey without worrying about extra fees. We believe the joy of creating should be accessible to all, and our pricing structure reflects this commitment.

The history of these blocks is intertwined with the passion of Jamie Mason, a renowned figure in the block printing world. During her 15 years with Colouricious, Jamie designed most of the wooden printing blocks that are popular today. Her creativity was born out of a deep understanding and love for the craft, and she continues to inspire new and experienced artists alike. Although Jamie has shifted her focus from designing to teaching, her legacy in block printing is a testament to this art form’s enduring beauty and potential.

Today, Jamie Mason primarily conducts mixed media workshops in London under the “Create with Jamie Mason” banner. Her workshops are about learning and integrating the block printing technique with other mixed media methods to create unique and expressive artworks. For those interested in mastering this craft and exploring its versatile applications, Jamie offers creative retreats held in Central London. These sessions are perfect for artists and crafters looking to enhance their skills and dive deeper into the creative process, combining block printing with various other art forms in an inspiring setting.
