MAEA - Monotype
Tuesday, July 30th, from 4p - 8p
Ages: 18+ years old
There are wildly diverse ways to make monotypes and monoprints (one-off images that use printmaking techniques) in any style you choose. Learn a few techniques using our etching press, including registration (so you can print multiple times and colors on the same paper) and working up a plate’s “ghost.” Then, experiment, observe others, and play to learn more. Don’t like your print yet? Print another layer on it! You can make individual works of art, and/or you can create backgrounds or artworks to build on, pages or covers for book art, or collage materials. For beginners or those with experience.
Bring some good small to medium brushes if you have them. Optional: a sketchbook for inspiration or images, collage materials, prints or drawings you’d like to add color or additional imagery to, papers to try printing on, stencils, dried plant materials (flat, nothing hard), scraps of lace and other flat textures, etc.
Please know our Print Studio is in a historic building with steps.
