Taster Day: Introduction to Monotype

This event is now fully booked.

with Sally Weatherill

Monotype printmaking is a very immediate and intuitive process in which unique prints are produced by adding and/or subtracting ink from a plate which is then printed onto paper. In this course, two methods of the flexible and experimental medium of monotype printmaking will be introduced.  

We will experiment with textural papers and stencils to create multi-layered prints and will also explore a subtractive method of monotype, where the image is formed using a variety of marks to remove ink from the plate. 

Graphic, textural or painterly results can be achieved, depending on which monotype technique is used. Techniques can be combined; the possibilities are endless. 

All materials will be included, but please feel free to bring along any interestingly textured papers or netting, etc to use with the monotypes.
