Monoprints and Monotypes
This two-day workshop is ideal for artists who love to draw and paint, since monotype printing allows considerable freedom in its approach to imagery being the most painterly among the printing processes as well as the most spontaneous and unpredictable.There are a number of different ways to work with monotyping and monoprinting, all of which will be explored during this exciting workshop: additive methods, direct tracing, subtractive methods, using stencils, with oil based inks, waterbased inks, adding texture and details with found materials.
It is a very adaptable form of printmkaing and it is accessible to everyone, including total beginners.
If you have never done printmaking before, this is a good starting point!
