MONOPRINTING IS AN EASY, FUN, AND INTERACTIVE MEDIUM suitable for all ages and artistic ability. In this class we 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 will utilize stencils, found objects (aka junk), and layering to achieve interesting textures and designs on various types of paper to include 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.
