Monotype 16th October:

This session will focus on the technique of Monotype. Unlike other printmaking techniques, monotype creates a single, unique impression by applying paint or ink directly onto a smooth, non-absorbent surface such as metal or glass. The image is then transferred onto paper by pressing or hand-rubbing, producing a one-of-a-kind print characterised by rich textures, spontaneous fluidity, and creative freedom, making it perfect for experimentation. This method merges elements of painting, drawing, and printmaking, offering artists a high degree of freedom and expressive potential.
