Come join us for a hands-on printmaking workshop using gel plates!
About this Event

Learn the basics of creating your own printed papers using gel plates! We will explore masking, stencils, markmaking & painterly print techniques, using water based, slow drying GOLDEN acrylic paints. These methods create unique results; the pressure of printing creates texture and pattern not possible when painting directly on paper. Printmaking is an excellent way to create your own supply of papers for collage, book arts, cards or art that can stand on its own.


I will share samples, demonstrate the process, answer questions and work with artists individually during the workshop. Each artist will create samples to take home, which will serve as a valuable reference for future projects.

A class summary will also be provided afterwards so that artists can continue their exploration independently. All materials provided. Artists of all levels are welcome. Dress for mess!


Note: Upstairs classroom, no elevator available. Parking and seats are limited.

Feel free to contact Barbara De Pirro [email protected] with any questions.
