Beka Bielman Art

05/24/2026

We are so excited to welcome Beka Bielman Art back to the studio on Saturday, June 20th, for another fun workshop!

Artwork should be used and enjoyed, and what better way than to put it on fabric. Come join us in making artwork on textiles. We will be using our very own linocut art to decorate cloth towels, totes, t-shirts, and more! Bring items that you would like to upcycle. We will also supply two totes for you to work on.

It is okay if you are new to the linoleum printmaking process. Our instructor will take you step by step through the initial drawing to final print (carving safety included). Let’s have fun with the process of making something that will bring joy to you and your loved ones!

Can you believe it? February is already here! In just a few short weeks I will teach a printmaking 101 class open to all levels. We'll learn how to transfer, carve, and print all in this one- day class. It'll be at the Northwest Arts Center in Duvall, WA -- a place that is a great place to meet new friends and learn. If you live in the area I hope you will join me. It's going to be so much fun! Once you try printmaking, you'll want to keep making and creating!

Another layer completed! Yay! It has been a trying process. This time around I went with a 330 gsm paper (the paper was way too smooth to easily lift prints off of) and printed with a glass baren (which is a new challenge for me). I ran out of white and ended up with colors that were way to dark and I carved when I probably shouldn't have. But . . . I learned a lot through this process and wouldn't change a thing.

I'm not done with these prints yet. Stay tuned for what I do next 😉.

There's just one month to go until my printmaking class! Once you try printmaking, you won't want to stop. Equal parts drawing, carving and printing open up all the creative channels in your mind. Come join me! Beginners are welcome.

There's nothing like carving lino to calm the mind. I swear with everything going on right how, I have more and more reason to turn to art. Art helps us begin to process the unfathomable. And there is enough to process for the next few generations. People (all people living in the US) need to feel safe and that's not happening. I'm thinking of you all and hope you are safe out there.

Hi guys! I haven't been posting much because I've been busy prepping for my new printmaking class coming to the Northwest Art Center (northwestartcenter.org ) in Duvall! (I couldn't pull up the specific url, I will edit it in later).
Please check it out! I would love to see you there. There are only 12 spots available and it would be great to have a full house.
I will be bringing in my small (11 x 17) printing press for our use. With it and with your imagination, you can print drawings and photo inspired works. Here are some of the pieces I've created. Did I say this is relief printmaking? No? We'll it is and it's a lot of fun. We'll be learning how to transfer drawings to lino (the surface we'll be working on), how to carve out your drawing, and how to print your artwork on paper. So fun!

I'm getting art examples prepped for an intro to relief printmaking I will be teaching this coming year. I'll post more about it when the details get finalized. I would love to have you all in my class 🥰. There will be options for card making, landscape, notan, and more.
