Monotype Printmaking Workshop

Would you like to make your own Mini Print? Come and join Sally Hirst on a printmaking course here at Wingfield Barns.
 
This is a very painterly way of printmaking; rolling on layers of paint and creating lines and textures through wiping, brushing, masking and stenciling. We will be using Gelli© plates that are designed to release the paint on contact with the paper. Each piece of paper will return to the plate a number of times building layers of colour and texture. Suitable for both beginners and those with some experience. The workshop fee includes all tools and materials, you just need to bring an apron or old shirt to protect your clothing.
 
Thursday 1st August, 10.00 to 12.30
Refreshments provided.
