ADVANCED WORKSHOPS
There are many techniques to explore in printing, like multiple blocks, viscosity prints, a la poupee ink application and jigsaw plates, colour blends, offset techniques and combination prints.
Paper is another consideration, its colour, type, and weight. Variations in ink type, colour, translucency and stiffness are all considerations in bringing the best result out of a printing block.
Advanced workshops are tailored to the needs of the individual art practitioner.
Of course if the artist is a printmaker and simply wishes to print their own work, the studio can be hired for a reasonable rate.
