In this two-day workshop we will be transforming household packaging into playful prints using the magic of printmaking. The first day will be focused on making intaglio, relief and embossed prints. The second day will be dedicated to adding colour and texture with chine collé (a form of collaging and sticking found and made papers onto prints). Suitable for beginners and more seasoned printmakers, this workshop is also super for educators as it translates well into a classroom.
By the end of the two days, we will have learnt:
– How to prepare and translate an image into both an intaglio and relief collagraph and understand their differences.
– How to manipulate packaging with different tools and techniques to achieve tonal variation with contrasting linear mark making.
– To ink the plate for both intaglio and relief and how to combine the two.
– Which papers to choose and how to prepare them along with plate registration and good working practice in achieving a clean result, using a press.
– Designed, made, inked and printed a collection of original prints using both intaglio and relief inking with chine collé.
Marian will be able to answer questions in English and Welsh
