Explore the versatility of printing with photopolymer plates. Relief and intaglio processes will be covered. This technique offers a safe alternative to etching plates with acids. Create a relief plate from hand-drawn images or you can use found materials such as lace, mesh, or dried plants to create a plate. We will make drawings on drafting film to create intaglio plates. You can use drawings or photographs under the drafting film to make a line and tone drawing with pencils.
During this workshop you will create two plates, one will be processed to print in relief, the other, with different processing will be inked and printed intaglio. You will learn how to ascertain the correct exposure for your plates, and how to process the plates to create durable printing plates. You will also learn how to ink and print onto dampened paper, and a small edition can be made time permitting.
Price of workshop includes all materials.
