In this newest 2 day workshop (10am-4pm each day) artists will learn a variety of processes to produce gorgeous backgrounds, mono-prints and one-off works of art. We will utilize OPEN acrylics, QoR Watercolor paints, Gelli Arts Printing Plates, Plexiglass Printing Plates, along with artist participant designed collagraph printing plates utilizing various gels and mediums. Prints will be “pulled” on a selection of papers including Arches 88 watercolor paper. This is a day and a half workshop (additional time should be available if we need it, depends on class size) as we will need an overnight period to allow our “printing plates” sufficient time to dry. All supplies are included although participants are encouraged to bring their own “Gelli Arts" plate, brayer and a selection of papers to print on if they have them already in their possession. Participants may also wish to bring their own “Stencils” in order to have a greater variety of imagery at their disposal along with paint brushes and palette knives. 140 lb watercolor paper will be supplied and additional paper will be available for purchase should attendees wish to have more printing opportunities. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own large format (22 x 30) 140 lb watercolor paper if they have it available.
