Class Description

No chemical solvents will be used in this class. Using Charbonnel or other brands of water miscible oil inks, as well as any water miscible oil paints the students might have, participants will explore the possibilities of creating one-of-a-kind prints using either a pre-existing substrate (such as an etching or collograph plate) to make a monoprint or creating one-off monotypes, where images are created directly on a sheet of plexiglass. By employing templates, stencils, and textured fabrics in the printing process, students can produce multilayered images. The last session will present ways to utilize monotypes, and “ghosts” in other art-making processes. This class is suitable for novice as well as experienced printmakers. Manhattan Graphics will provide some plexiglass plates, inks, and paints. Supply list will be provided upon registration. *includes 8 hours of open workshop time Instructor Bio: Liz Marraffino is a painter, printmaker, and ceramic artist whose work has been exhibited in group and solo shows in New York City, Dobbs Ferry, NY, Prague, Amsterdam, Australia, and Great Britain.
