Dates: Sat 4th, 11th & 18th July | 6pm - 9pm
Collagraph is a wonderfully tactile and experimental form of relief printmaking. In this process, textured materials and found objects are attached to a rigid surface to create a raised printing plate, which is then inked and printed using our Victorian Albion Press.
During the session, we’ll look at inspiring examples of collagraph prints, experiment with textures and materials and learn how to ink, prepare paper and print your own work.
No experience is needed, and all basic materials will be provided. If you’d like to explore more advanced collagraph techniques, you’re welcome to attend multiple sessions.
If you enjoy this workshop, let us know, as we’d love to develop a longer 5 to 10-week course exploring collagraph printmaking in greater depth.
You will learn:
How to build a collagraph printing plate using found materials
Techniques for inking and printing textured surfaces
Ways to experiment with texture, layering and composition
Dates: Thu 2nd, 9th & 16th July | 6pm - 9pm
Monotype is a unique printmaking process that creates expressive, one-of-a-kind prints. Using ink or paint on smooth surfaces such as glass, metal or acrylic, we’ll transfer images onto paper using our Victorian Albion Press.
This process is painterly, experimental and perfect for anyone interested in looser or more expressive image-making. During the session, we’ll look at examples from artists working in monotype, explore found imagery and objects for inspiration and experiment with different ways of creating marks and textures.
No experience is needed, and all basic materials will be provided. If you’d like a deeper introduction to monotype, feel free to sign up for multiple sessions to explore additional techniques.
If you enjoy this workshop, let us know, as we’d love to develop a longer 5 to 10-week course exploring monotype printmaking further.
You will learn:
How to create expressive monotype prints
Techniques for applying ink, preparing paper and printing
Ways to develop imagery through texture, layering and experimentation
Dates: Wed 1st, 8th & 25th July | 1pm - 4pm
Sun 5th, 12th & 19th July | 6pm - 9pm
In this 3-hour session, we’ll explore the work of artists using lino cut printmaking to inspire the prints you’ll create yourself. You’ll learn how to carve lino safely, apply ink correctly and print using our Victorian Albion Press.
This workshop is suitable for complete beginners, and all basic materials will be provided. We’ll be working at a small scale for this one-off session, but if you’d like to develop larger or more detailed prints, you may wish to attend additional workshops to continue your project.
If you enjoy this workshop, let us know, as we’d love to develop a longer 5 to 10-week course exploring lino cut printmaking in greater depth.
You will learn:
How to carve and prepare a lino printing block
Techniques for inking and hand-printing with an Albion Press
Ways to develop imagery inspired by contemporary and historical printmakers
