Workshop Descriptions
Drypoint & Monoprint with Edith Krause
Drypoint involves using an engraving tool to scratch a drawing into the surface of the plate. Ink is then applied to the entire plate and wiped clean, leaving only the ink in the scratched lines. Monoprint is a method of applying colour to the plate, using a roller, rag or brush; ink can also be removed to creating textures, or moved around to blend different colours. By applying a monoprint method to an inked drypoint plate, you can create full colour images with line and texture.
Supplies/bring:
Edith Krause has been making prints for 25 years. She has an MFA in printmaking from the University of Alberta and for many years taught printmaking at Trinity Western University. She currently gives workshops to small groups out of her own studio.
