Printmaking & Collage Workshop at Nanaimo Ceramic Arts

Printmaking & Collage Workshop
Instructor: Francesca Reside

In this workshop, we will learn to take prints on paper, combine them with collage elements and then transfer them onto a different surface. We will start with creating monoprints using a gelli plate with mark making tools, stencils and colour. Then we will look at how to move away from just having prints on paper to adding other elements and ways to display our work. Our final project will involve a canvas or accordion book.
All supplies are included.
