WHAT: Work with Lucy and you create your very own two-colour screenprint.
Please come prepared with an A4 image in mind before attending the workshop. These ideas can be developed during the workshop.
During this 2 day course you will explore textural and linear techniques to develop a two colour transparency/ positive from which to print.
The workshop will support you through the process of exposing your analogue image onto silk-screen (a photographic process using UV sensitive emulsion), translating your hand produced artwork into a stencil ready to print. You will learn how to mix colour and use specialist equipment to create a fabulous handful of two colour, A4, paper screen-prints to take home at the end of workshop.
WHEN: Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd June, 10am-4pm. Please ensure that you can do both dates.
HOW MUCH: £160 per person or £280 for 2 when you book together. Includes tuition (2x 6 hour sessions), materials and tea & coffee.
OTHER INFO: We will have a break at lunch time - please be sure to bring some lunch with you.
