Due to popular demand, we are bringing back our Introduction to Monoprinting Workshop. Monoprinting is an easy, fun, interactive medium suitable for all ages and artistic abilities. In this class, we will introduce you to this form of monoprint making, in which an image is made from a smooth surface coated in acrylic paint, without the use of a press. Each print (or pull) will be unique and one-of-a-kind.
We’ll utilize stencils, found objects (aka junk), and layering to achieve interesting textures and designs on various types of paper, including vintage dictionary pages, maps, book pages, etc. The pieces you create can be used in collage, journaling, card making or matted and framed as a piece of art. We will be using Gelli, a well-known brand that creates (non-animal derived) gelatin-based plates and acrylic paint.
This fun and relaxing Workshop is approximately 2.5 hours long. Students will have plenty of time to create and will leave with several prints. In addition, you will receive a special 15% discount code to purchase your own monoprinting materials during the workshop or in our Store. All supplies are provided – just bring your creativity and willingness to have some fun!
