PRINTMAKING/Monotype Workshops

 

                

 

 

 

 

 

 

Monotypes are paintings on smooth acrylic plates transferred to paper once only.

Artists ranging from Edgar Degas, Pablo Picasso, Ross Moffett, and more recently

  Joan Snyder and Michael Mazur have used the monotype medium to express a more

spontaneous and evocative range of drawing, painting, and printmaking.

4-Day Monotype Workshop

Students create painterly spontaneous images on acrylic plates using small rubber brayers, brushes, Oil Bars, or stencils, and oil base etching ink. Dampened 100% rag paper placed on top of the inked plate, and passed through the press with gentle pressure, results in a unique impression that is intimately and permanently bonded with the fibers of the paper. Overprinting and contemporary experimental approaches with larger rollers produce magical surprises. The glistening layers of radiant ink create truly unique images with depth, mystery, memory, and delight. Demonstrations each day will help to develop individual explorations. Beginner to advanced students are welcome.

The natural world is a sanctuary, a place to breath wind and think and feel, undistracted at last. Things in nature transmute, a serene refuge of the spirit one day, drastically altered moments later. To paint on location is to create portraits of these familiar places, where ocean meets land, where hill meets sky. Capture the fragility and wildness of nature with paint on canvas, meeting four days in early June. Choose your own specific subject matter and capture an authentic and enduring moment in time. Daily demos and one-on-one instruction throughout the morning.
