EXPLORATIONS IN MONOTYPE  WORKSHOP 

A monotype is a one-of-a-kind print where the ink or other pigment, such as watercolor or oil paint, is applied directly to a printing plate and then transferred to printing paper by running the plate and dampened paper through an etching press or by some other pressure sensitive method.

Students will learn basic inking techniques, both abstract and realistic, including subtractive, additive, color blending, and painterly techniques, using water-based inks or oil paint.  All materials will be supplied except paper and paper towels.  Paper will be available for purchase at cost.

Limit 6 students.

March 30 – April 2, 2009, Monday through Thursday, 1:00 – 4:00 p.m.
