Learn how easy and fun Monoprinting is using paint, vintage papers, found objects & botanical elements.
About this Event

Monoprinting is an easy, fun, interactive medium suitable for all ages and artistic abilities. In this class, Melissa will introduce you to this form of monoprint making, in which an image is made from a smooth surface coated in acrylic paint, without the use of a press. Each print (or pull) will be unique and one-of-a-kind. We'll utilize botanical elements, stencils, found objects (aka junk), and layering to achieve interesting textures and designs on various types of paper, including vintage dictionary pages, maps, book pages, etc. The pieces you create can be used in collage, journaling, card making or matted and framed as a piece of art. We will be using Gelli, a well-known brand that creates (non-animal derived) gelatin-based plates and acrylic paint.This fun and relaxing Workshop is approximately 2.5 hours long. Participants will have plenty of time to create and will leave with several prints, greeting cards & bookmarks. Participants must be 16 years or older and experience is helpful but not necessary because Melissa and Team will be there to help you with your projects. All supplies are provided – just bring your creativity and willingness to have fun!


A Downtown SLO Parking structure voucher is also included in the Workshop price.
