Students will receive an overview of the Monotype printmaking process to create their own series of one-of-a-kind Monotypes. Using traditional materials students will learn how to prepare copper plates and paper to be ready for printing. We will cover additive and reductive monotype techniques, the Ghost Print, mark making, tone, and gesture. As well as the purpose for and how to adjust ink viscosity. Instruction on Chine Collé will also be included. Monotype is a printmaking process that blends both the beauty of a painter’s touch and the permanence of a graphic mark. The medium lends itself to spontaneity and experimentation; this course will benefit the artist looking to take risks, adapt to the unexpected, and discover their subject.
