PRINTMAKING: Monoprints

SUNDAY 16th AUGUST 10am to 4pm Join tutor and printmaker Anne Davison for this workshop which will introduce you to the print process of monoprint, using nature as an inspiration. What you can expect: Monoprint is one of the basic families of printmaking processes; great for those who love trying out creative techniques. In this workshop, you will experiment creatively with inks, dried leaves, stencils and textures using a printing press to produce multiple one-off monoprints based on nature. What to bring: Please bring an apron or wear old clothes. You may like to bring a packed lunch. All materials are provided, but you may like to bring along dried leaves, flowers or other materials with interesting textures, to personalise your prints. What you'll take away • A selection of experimental monoprints • An understanding of the monoprint process, and lots of inspiration Suitable for: Complete beginners, or experienced artists looking to expand their skillset. Also suitable for experienced printmakers as a refresher, or just for enjoyment. The emphasis will be on experimenting and having fun, rather than precision printing. Your tutor: Anne Davison is a well established textile design artist, with a worldwide spread of clients and collectors. She is also an experienced tutor. You can read more about Anne on our Tutors page. Tea and coffee is provided, and you are welcome to use our small kitchen. There is a corner shop a short walk away, and parking at the weekend is easily available just outside. We're on the first floor with no lift.
