 The Art of Collage & Gel Plate Printing
Saturday June 3, 10-2
$115/person registration plus $20 in materials

In the first part of the workshop, you will learn how to create monotype prints using inks, acrylic paints, stencils, etc. You will make original art on everything from paper bags to tissue paper. These monoprints will be made on an 8″ x 10″ gel plate and used as part of your collage. In the second part of the workshop, there will be lots of materials for you to incorporate into your art. You will leave with your finished piece of collage art and a desire to keep experimenting. Halfway through the workshop, we will break for a brown bag lunch.  A week before the class, I will contact you via email with some encouraging ideas. This is a happy, fully hands-on workshop.
