In this one-day workshop we will be transforming household packaging into playful prints using the magic of printmaking
By the end of the day, we will have covered
- preparing and translating an image into both an intaglio and relief collagraph and their differences.
- manipulating the packaging with different tools and techniques to achieve tonal variation with contrasting linear mark making
- inking the plate in both intaglio and relief and how to combine the two
- how to choose from the range of SPW stock papers and how to prepare them
- plate registration and good working practice to achieve a clean result.
- setting up one of Swansea Print Workshops three etching presses correctly for the process
- producing a small set of final prints on good printing paper
We will be working with a limited palette of just black and red
I’m very much looking forward to sharing this relaxed informal day of printing with you.
Thank you.
