In this one day workshop we will dive head first into making and printing copper plates utilizing traditional drypoint intaglio methods. After an introduction to the technique, participants will receive a small prepared copper plate and tools for drawing. I will demonstrate the basics of mark making using different tools and materials. In the latter part of the afternoon we will move onto inking and printing our plates on an etching press. Students will walk away with a small set of printed works. Open to artists of all levels, no experience needed.
No experience necessary. All materials included. Students can either bring a sketch to transfer and work from, select an image on hand, or work directly on the plate. Copper plate size is approximately 4in x 5in.

BIRDS AND BLOOMS!
New to relief printing? Or need a refresher class? Using birds and botanicals as inspiration, you’ll be introduced to the satisfying art of single-color linocut. You'll learn everything you need to carve and print your first block: transferring a design, carving with confidence, and pulling clean prints (using a 4 × 6 inch block) by hand and with the use of a press. We'll cover tool safety and technique, inking, registration basics, setting pressure on the press, and how to troubleshoot common problems.
No experience necessary. All materials included.

A watercolor monotype blends the beauty of two mediums: painting and printmaking. In this one day workshop we’ll explore various ways of making prints using watercolors and watercolor pencils. You can work washy and bold or tight and detailed, each approach yields unique prints. It’s magical watching the watercolors rehydrate and print onto dampened paper. If you have them, please bring any favorite watercolors or water media brushes, a selection of both will be on hand for workshop use as well.
No experience necessary. All materials included. Students can either bring a sketch to work from, work abstractly or use an image we have on hand to explore the medium.
