The monoprint is a form of printmaking where the image can only be made once, unlike most printmaking which allows for multiple originals. The beauty of monoprinting lies in its spontaneity and its allowance for combinations of printmaking, painting and drawing media.  During this workshop we will explore different methods for creating monoprints including collage and stencil and direct painting onto the plate. This workshop is suitable for complete beginners and those with a little printmaking experience.
