So this is Monoprint! with Gill Jenkins – Wednesday 26 February

The joy of monoprinting lies in its spontaneity, with the ability to combine printmaking, painting, stencils and drawing techniques.

This one day workshop is an easy introduction to working in a print room and no previous experience is required.

Artist/printmaker Gill Jenkins will introduce you to printmaking in a relaxed and informal way, demonstrating simple but effective methods for transferring ink onto paper using an etching press. You will learn about the differences between Intaglio and Relief printmaking, the use of oil based inks and rollers to ink up plates and how to prepare your paper before printing on it. Gill will also show you how textures and stencils can be incorporated to create interesting and original monoprints.

Suitable for anyone who fancies spending a day playing in a printmaking studio!

Date: Wednesday 26 February
