MONOPRINTING
with Angela Gardner

Sunday 10th August 10am-4pm

Impress members $85, non-members $100 including materials

Monoprints are very spontaneous and the closest printmaking method to painting. This is a printing method that produces one-offs rather than editions. The results can be immediate, lyrical and painterly with possibilities for subtle gradations in hue and combinations of mark-making. Students will be introduced to the main techniques of monoprinting – sgraffito, masking, over-rolling, relief impressions and wiping.

Angela Gardner was educated at Cardiff College of Art (now University of Wales UK) and Queensland College of Art, Griffith University. Her work has been selected for Shell Fremantle Print Award (2002); CPM National Print Awards(2003) and Linden Postcard Exhibition, St Kilda VIC (2004 & 2005). In 2001 she won the Eckersley’s Prize at Art Venture 2000+, she was an invited artist at Redcliffe Gallery's annual 15 Artists exhibition in 2006 and her work has toured internationally.
