Printmaking Intensive Day Course
Thurs 29th October | 10am–5pm (with lunch break)
Suitable for complete beginners and experienced artists alike.
In this full day session you will learn both monotype and collagraph techniques, and then explore how to combine them to create more layered, experimental and varied prints.
Monotype printing consists of applying ink directly to acrylic sheets and then printing them onto paper using our Albion press. There are many effective ways to do this so we will spend the morning playing around and learning this method. Then in the afternoon we will learn some Collagraph techniques which consist of inking up found objects and stencils. Later on, we will combine these two types of printing which will open up a whole realm of possibilities! It’s a fun and freeing experience that can create quite complex and beautiful results - we hope to see you there.
