Description
Learn to make colourful monotype prints without the need for a press. In this half day workshop, Lou Davis will take you through how to make a Vege-gel printing plate which can be used to print beautiful and colourful works of art. We’ll cover a number of techniques including using stencils and masks, adding texture with botanicals and found objects and using household items for mark making and using home-made foam stamps. You will then have the option to create a set of 10 gift cards using collages of your prints, or take your printed designs away to create cards, prints, gift tags, bookmarks, and more at home.
