Monotype Workshops
Introduction to Monotype
There are many different ways of creating a monotype, in this workshop we will look at 2 of them, working with one colour, fabulous Prussian Blue & a hand bamboo burnisher no need for a printing press.
Spend the day with me in my studio & you will leave with the understanding of materials & skills to monotype easily transferable to your 'kitchen studio' at home.
No. 1: Monochrome Linear Monotypes – Placing Paper on an Inked up Slab and Drawing on the Reverse
No. 2: Painterly Monotypes – Painting the Image on the Slab
No previous experience is necessary, a disposition set to 'play' mono printing/monotype is very playful, loose & fun!
Format of the day:-
Tea & coffee available throughout the day, plus the essential fuel of biscuits & cake, its surprising how much energy you will use!
Maximum group size of 4, happy to take group bookings & arrange dates to suit.
£75.00 p.p including tea, coffee, cake, lunch & all materials - prepare to be prolific in your playful fun!
Any questions, please email me.
Available dates:-
Saturday 3rd May - fully booked
Tuesday 8th July - fully booked
