Learn this tactile form of printmaking through studying the forms and movements of animals. Beginner Friendly.
About this Event

One of the more fluid, tactile and drawing based printmaking disciplines. Monotype covers a broad range of single print markmaking techniques.

In this workshop we will study the form and movement of animals, moving from the figurative to the abstract, you will be given time to experiment, play and find your style. Guided by two Royal College of Art trained printmakers you will leave with a selection of final prints. We welcome all skill levels.

Alongside the workshop you will be provided with a selection of complimentary snacks and beverages.


Studio Notes:

- Please arrive on time and wrapped up warm – our studio, whilst lovely, is an old Victorian building and though we will have heaters it still gets very cold in the wintertime.

- Make sure any clothes you are wearing you are happy to get messy in – we do have aprons, but printmaking is unpredictable at times.

- You do not need to bring any materials as they will all be provided to you.


Parking:

Free parking is available outside the Fire Station; however, it is limited. There is plenty of street parking down Park Road which is free on weekends or after 6pm on weekdays.
