Here are a few pictures from the Monoprint Collage class at
Pacific Northwest Art School in Coupeville, WA, on Whidbey Island. In September I'll be back doing my
Big Fat Art workshop, which is full, but you can get on the wait list.

The theme of the four-day Abstract Painting workshop was "Series as Process". This theme segued nicely into the two-day Monoprint Collage class. The technique naturally lends itself to series work.
I was
thinking that next year at PNWAS, the four-day workshop, starting on May 31, could be "Gel Plate Monoprint: Series as Starting Point", and the two-day might be a workshop on using
Yupo with India ink and mixed media. Your thoughts?
My next workshop this year is at the
Omega Institute, the week of July 6 - 11. Register
here, see more information
here. See a video
here. Thanks for visiting!
I love these so, so much! Would you consider doing a DVD or online class on your monoprinting techniques? I would buy it in a heartbeat!
ReplyDeleteThere is SO MUCH free stuff online about monoprinting with the gel plate. The techniques you can easily get from videos posted on the Gelli Arts blog and elsewhere (just search YouTube!) Making art, however, is something else. In my online workshops I don't like to focus on a particular technique, but I will consider using the gel plate as ONE of the techniques in a future online class. Thanks for your interest!
DeleteThanks, Jane. Glad to hear it. I can't get enough of your Scribble Collage DVD and hope to take an online class from you soon!
DeleteI've been playing with my Gelli Plate for a few weeks and would love to take a class with you so I can actually build upon the prints I'm (haphazardly) making now. Next May would be great!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jane, that was such a great class! And I really like your ideas for your May workshops too! I just love taking the ferry to art school, how much better does it get really?
ReplyDeleteWow, such gorgeous inspiring work :)
