Printed pictures : monoprint workshop

I found the mono-print workshop really useful today, but the group I was in was incredibly busy. I think this was because of the Louise Lockhart big heads at 4pm, meaning everyone came to this earlier group. Looking at the timetable on estudio, I think I may try and do some mono-printing on either wednesday after the lecture, thursday morning or potentially tomorrow after my lino workshop. Thursday morning seems more likely, as it looks less busy. 

IDEAS FROM WORKSHOP:

  • Monotype: the monotype demonstration turned out much better than how I've seen this process work before. I think this could work really well with some of my line drawings. 
  • Another interesting idea I have never seen before was using objects like ear buds, cut pieces of board, toothpicks or a clean rag to draw lines, shapes or textures onto the board. I think this could work really well to both create textures to then cut up for collage pieces and in combination with some stencil mono-printing - putting the stencil over the top of the area to isolate the texture/drawing.
