BEGINNING   INTAGLIO PRINTING

​

 SATURDAY/ SUNDAY  January 17th and 18th 2:00-5:00

Learn how to edition an intaglio print: a print with incised lines scratched into a flat surface. Using Akua non-toxic intaglio inks and wet paper you

will “pull” the ink off the plate.

Enjoy the linear quality of drawing on a 9 X 12 plate AND playing with wax carton etching.  Wiping the ink off the plate leaves room for creative substractive techniques.  While editioning 6 prints an additional 4 prints will allow for a  print exchange with participants.

​~MONOTYPE INTENSIVE!~

THREE DAY EXPLORATION

March 10th, 11th, and 12th

@ NEW MEXICO ART LEAGUE 

3409 Juan Tabo NE    Albuquerque, N.M. 87111

Monotype prints are just that: a unique one of kind

print, often called “painterly prints” due to the

spontaneous nature of this process. Enjoy the textures

and soft values that only monotypes can create.

During this workshop students will learn how to pull

monotype prints using Akua liquid inks. Akua inks are

non-toxic and clean up with rubbing alcohol. Working

on a polycarbonate plate (matrix) we will manipulate

the ink with a brayer and a variety of mark making tools

and materials. This process will be explored first with

only black ink and end with layers of colored inks. We

will learn the basic monotype printing techniques:

additive and subtractive mark-making, stencils,

registration, offset and ghost prints. Chin collè- aka:

collage prints- will also be introduced to give the

process even more exciting options to explore. The

printing process can be as experiential and open ended

as you want or as controlled: using Chin collè and

stencils. Your final compositions will be exciting prints

reflecting your preferences in imagery. We’ll wrap up

the workshop with time to view our prints and share our

insights and discoveries made during this three-day

printmaking adventure. Come learn, play and create

with ink and a brayer!

Open to 6 students.
