WCFA – Monoprinting on Gel Plates Workshop

In this workshop, participants will experiment with using paint & stencils to monoprint on gel printmaking plates. Make one of a kind prints and papers that can be used to make collages, small books, cards – the possibilities are endless! Veronica will show you step by step how to use the simple tools to create stunning results with paper, paint and other art materials you may not have thought of before.
