In this workshop, participants will cut a simple design into contact paper (the adhesive vinyl used for lining shelves) and adhering it to a screen to create a stencil. This technique is great for bold and graphic designs.
Drypoint is a form of intaglio printmaking. In this workshop, participants will scratch a drawing onto an acrylic plate with a sharp needle. Burrs that result from the scratching trap and hold the ink after the plate is wiped clean. This creates a soft, heavy line that is unique to this type of intaglio.
In this workshop, a single block is carved and cut into separate pieces, inked individually, and reassembled for printing. This method allows for multi-color designs without the need for multiple blocks.
Water soluble monotypes are a form of printmaking that uses water-soluble crayons and watercolor paints. Participants use these materials to paint and draw on a plexiglass plate. The paints are allowed to dry and are then printed on an etching press using damp paper. Wet paper reactivates the water-soluble materials and results in a vibrant impression. This form of monotype is the form of printing we offer that is closest to drawing and painting.
Participants will use water soluble materials to paint directly on a screen, then apply a transparent base to create unique monotypes.
