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. Workshop is limited to six participants to allow for maximum one on one with Melissa. Participants will have plenty of time to create and will leave with several prints suitable for 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.
