Local artist Nina Yocom will guide students on how to intuitively create beautiful alcohol ink abstract works.

In this workshop students will begin by working on a blank 6" x 6" white ceramic tile focusing on the intuitive nature of inks and the fine balance between controlling them using a variety of tools and allowing the painting to process. We will apply inks to a number of different surfaces and learn to use tools such as paint brushes, foam brushes, and cool airflow to move the inks. We will also work with stencils, acrylic painters and fine liner pens to create mixed media pieces. All tools and materials are provided for a $35 fee payable to the instructor.

Explore Gel Plate Printmaking! Discover the creative possibilities of gel plate printmaking in this hands-on workshop with artist Heather Carey of Heather Carey Studios. Gel plate printing is an accessible mono-printing process that encourages experimentation through layers of color, texture, and pattern. Using acrylic paint, stencils, natural and found materials, participants will create a collection of one-of-a-kind prints while exploring a variety of techniques, including texture building, masking, and layered printing.

Throughout the workshop, students will develop an understanding of the gel plate printing process while embracing the unexpected results that make each print unique. Finished prints may stand alone as original works of art or become beautiful elements for collage, art journals, handmade books, greeting cards, and mixed media projects. Suitable for both beginners and experienced artists, this workshop offers an inviting opportunity to expand your creative practice, explore new techniques, and discover the expressive potential of mono-printing.

All materials are provided. Participants are welcome to bring fashion magazines or National Geographic magazines to incorporate transfers into their work, along with favorite textured materials such as leaves, lace, or bubble wrap. Please avoid bringing anything with sharp edges that could damage the gel plate.
