New Directions in Monoprint PR03FA10
The Monoprint process offers a creative approach to making imagery. We will use this “painterly process” on a smooth surface, as well as make additional plates with a number of techniques such as carborundum, intaglio, plexiglass and paper lithography. These will be the foundation for a unique print exploration. As they are printed, “a story” or conversation of shape, color, line, texture and narrative will emerge. Overprinting and combinations of layering, patterns and colors will generate new imagery and encourage the artist to take both calculated steps and wild risks. Ultimately, a new vocabulary will be formed with these edition variant prints: related edition monoprints from unique plates. Some printmaking experience is helpful.
