Description

This class begins at WSW making monotypes using a variety of papers.  The emphasis will be on a painterly approach to imagery, a quick and free pace of working, elegant mark making, and color relationships that evolve in layers.  We consider these printed works on paper ‘elements’ – pieces that we can combine, layer and compose to create narratives.  In the encaustic studio at R&F, we will learn various ways to develop and combine these elements further using hot wax. Participants will play with collage and layering, using encaustics’ inherent translucency to create works with incredible richness and depth.

Description

This class will focus on creating waxed handmade paper works.  In the papermaking studio at WSW, students will work with a variety of natural fibers, including cotton, flax and abaca.  We will create collages utilizing techniques of layering, imbedding, stenciling, pulp painting and embossing.  Using these handmade paper elements as a starting point, we will then spend two days in the encaustic studio at R&F Handmade Paints working with wax.  We will be saturating, bending, burnishing, dipping, dripping, staining, transferring, sculpting and digging into these natural wonders.

Trace Monoprints, Gum Transfer, & Encaustic

Description

Trace monotype offers the spontaneity of a drawn line with the richness and unpredictability of printmaking.  Made popular by the curious line-based works of Paul Klee, this class gives the process a 21st Century spin, combining it with gum transfer, or ‘paper lithography’, a technique which can be used with either hand drawn or photographic imagery.  The nice thing about both of these low-tech processes is that they do not require a press.  Using papers of different weights will allow us to achieve transparency and opacity when we saturate them with wax in the encaustic studio at R&F Handmade Paints.  There we will learn the basics of working with encaustic, and explore ways to further develop our works on paper with collage and layering, and presentation methods for prints and artists books.
