Practice one of the most instantly-rewarding forms of printmaking in our Brattle Street Blacksmith House studio. The first half of the workshop will focus on reduction monotype and using masks and stencils to create one of a kind prints and “ghosts,” the term for a lighter impression of your image to use for further work. You’ll prepare your plates and paper, and use our press. The second half of the workshop will focus on collage techniques and building layers, including the traditional technique chine collé, a form of collage, using lightweight papers and Japanese Nori paste to add richness, texture and layers. Instructor: Laurie Sheffield Our studio uses non-toxic materials and some tools and supplies are provided or can be purchased on site from CCAE. A list of supplies and resources will be provided to enrolled students.Classes will include a demonstration, slides and art books for inspiration, and discussion of monotype techniques generally. Most of the workshop time will be yours, to create with support and advice. We are excited to welcome you to the Blacksmith House printmaking studio this spring!
