Monotypes
Host: Betsy Paré
Work with Natural Elements, Acrylic Paints, and Stencils
Endless possibilities will come to light throughout the process of hand making Monoprints. Each print will be unique in design, color scheme, layout and printing, depending on your style. This printing process is both inspiring and forgiving.
Experience will allow you to gain greater control over the outcome, but this exploratory and playful art form including the unpredictability and random nature of of the final print is part of its allure!
What to bring: Please wear old clothes and an apron is suggested. (We will take a 45 minute lunch break so you may want to bring a snack or bagged lunch). You are not required to bring anyrthing there will be plenty items available for this art class. BUT... should you choose to, grab any items you may want to include in your prints, some ideas are, favorite stencils, fresh or dried flowers, pretty weeds, sticks and random items such as string, rubber bands and other small items you might find in your junk drawer or the garage. (keep them on the flatter side, nothing taller than 1/2"
