Take 2: Monotype & Encaustic
Week 1: Thursday, March 11, 1 pm - 4 pm or 6 pm - 9 pm, with M. Baker
Week 2: Thursday, March 18, 6 pm - 9 pm, with Linda Womack
Fee: $180 total for the two sessions. You cannot attend just one session.
Learn how to combine two very different techniques, monotype printmaking and encaustic wax painting, to create unique pieces of art. In this collaborative class you'll first work with printmaker Marcy Baker to create one-of-a-kind monotypes. Inks are applied to a Plexiglas plate, then transferred to paper with a press. Explore the use of stencils & other tools to build layers of ink on the plate, creating rich imagery & texture.
The next session will be with encaustic painter Linda Womack, where you will apply vividly colored wax to your monotypes, allowing you to add pattern and texture to the surface using stencils and embossing techniques. You can also collage with wax instead of glue to incorporate papers, fibers and dried plants to your finished painting. Students will leave class with 2 finished projects. No previous experience is necessary in either technique, just an open mind and a desire to experiment!
Both instructors studios are located in southeast Portland. Space is limited to six students (two sessions of three students each in Marcy's studio but everyone will work together in one session at Linda's studio). Confirmation, directions to the studios and additional information will be emailed to students upon registration.
Maximum class size: 6 students total
