Offered this Spring 2012:
(8866) ART 107.665 - Exploring Monotype & The Painterly Print, Wed 9am-5:45pm, January 25 - February 8, 2012
We will be exploring a number of techniques for making painterly one-of-a-kind monotypes using additive light field, subtractive dark field and trace drawing methods. We will be combining techniques for making a series of mono-prints that incorporate repeating elements using stamping and stenciling methods for developing plate imagery. The course will culminate in developing a series of monotypes and mono-prints using both oil and water-based inks and archival papers.

We will be working with block printing techniques that do not require a press including carving woodblocks and linoleum plates, collaging textures to make collagraph plates and developing foam plates for making reduction prints with multiple colors. Using a variety of papers including cotton, kozo and bark for producing a wide range of relief prints. The course will culminate in developing a series of monotypes and mono-prints using both oil and water-based inks and archival papers.
