MONDAY, AUGUST 7 THROUGH WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 9
10AM – 4PM, 3-DAY WORKSHOP
Participants in this workshop will explore photopolymer plate-making and printing. The process begins with hand-drawn films and other film positives, then exposure and plate-making, and finally exploring all the printing possibilities with these flexible and versatile plates. Participants will gain a working knowledge of the process and be able to create multiple plates in this intensive workshop. The process is essentially non-toxic and accessible to artists working in different modes of expression from hand drawn, monotype, photographic or digitally based imagery.
