A course combining play with intention to create a print practice you’ll love.
Does this sound familiar?
- Looking through your pile of prints – you know some of these could be great, but you’re paralysed by fear of ruining what you already have
- Rummaging through your collage fodder again, hoping for inspiration
- Finally, a bit of time for making: now you can’t think what to do!
- Once again, you’ve fallen in love with your subject (this landscape, object or mark): you could make 100 different prints about it – but how to begin?
- Should I do this, or that? Why can’t I just make a decision and get on with it!
- You’ve made some good, even great, prints – but how on earth do you go about making a consistent body of work you love?
- You’ve made some art on paper that you want to show the world. Now all the questions arise: Which ones should you show? How do I sign them? How will they look best? Should you spend money on glazed frames?
Let me show you a way to start with intention, know what to do next, make decisions calmly, create a consistent body of art work and fall in love with your art practice again.
Print in Practice is a course for those who have already started their printmaking journey, but want to deepen their practice and understand the interplay between the flow of making and the intention of a project.
With modules covering:
Print as a practice – what to do regularly and how to start a project or series
Making a series of prints – by hand and printing press
How not to ruin your prints! – what to add (or not) to make your prints better and when to stop.
What to do with prints you don’t like – it does happen. But there are so many ideas for how to use these to make other art work, such as books, textiles work and mixed media.
Presenting your work – including choosing your best pieces, photographing them well, cropping, mounting and framing them, mounting them onto board, glazed and non-glazed framing, and alternatives to traditional framing.
