Don’t miss out on this unique and exciting opportunity to create unique prints at your own pace. You will learn a variety of techniques that will take your work from bold to ghostly impressions. You will be given the opportunity to adapt and develop ideas within your work
Open to all artistic and printmaking skill levels, this course is filled with techniques and practices used in most printmaking processes, and in a casual structure.
During this week we will sample different printmaking processes including -
Monoprinting – intended for creative one unique, unrepeatable impression.
Reduction Printing — carving your first plate, then removing more as different colors are applied for a “multi-plate” style of printing
Class may include:
Oil Resist printing – for those who love drawing and those who don’t.
Relief Printing – carving away with easy cut (plate and cutting tool provided)
Historically monoprinting has been referred to as “the painterly method of printmaking” it is the only printmaking process intended for creating one unique, unrepeatable impression. Monoprints have always been about experimentation and breaking away from the traditional. So if you are an artist rebel at heart this might be the place for you.
You will need to bring your supply fee to the first class session.
