Create rich, etched, photographic prints with an emphasis on unique mark making using photopolymer plates. Artists are encouraged to push the limits by working directly on the surface of their photographs, utilizing a large, unique variety of mark making tools to create their imagery.
The solar plate process can accommodate the stylistic approaches of virtually any artist, from photographers to draughtsmen. Solarplate is a light sensitized steel backed polymer material used by artists as an alternative to hazardous printing techniques. It is a simple, safer, and faster approach than traditional etching and relief printing.
Participants should bring photographs printed onto a clear transparency/acetate 6x8” film as well as brushes and any of their personal mark making tools.

This workshop is ideal for artists who love to draw and paint. Monoprints incorporate draftsmanship and direct painting with printmaking. This workshop approaches monoprinting in a unique way: draw and paint in color with rollers, brushes, and palette knives and explore how to use found materials to create textures that enhance the atmosphere and mood of a picture. We will focus on pulling light out of a dark background as well as working dark on light. Students who love to draw find freedom using these techniques, their color sense is expanded, and their drawing abilities can evolve to a higher level. All levels of experience welcome.
