< Back to Workshops

Wednesday – Friday, May 21, 22, 23, 10AM-2PM

3 sessions | $330 member price, $350 non-member price

Monotype printing is ideal for the painter who wants to produce a body of work on paper.

Workshop participants will learn the basic techniques to make a successful monotype print, such as the process of painting on a surface suitable for monotype, operating a printing press, and preparing paper for printing. Other exploratory techniques like trace monotype, re-registration, ghost printing, working in seriality, and incorporating multi-media materials will be explored. Examples of monotypes from PAAM’s collection will be presented and discussed. Any level of painting experience is welcome in the workshop, from the beginner to advanced painter.
