Colour Plate Lithography - Summer School

3-5 August

On 3-5 August, combine plate lithography and monoprinting techniques in this exploratory 3-day workshop, led by printmaker and artist Alastair Clark.

Start by working on acetates with various drawing, painting or digital materials and then exposing these directly onto an aluminium photo plate. These plates can produce detailed marks such as painterly washes, liner drawings, digital images, photographs and text.

Then delve into layering, printing plates and exploring how to build prints up in colours using lithography and combining simple monoprinting techniques and dive into some colour theory along the way.

This hands on 3 day course will allow for a playful exploration of how to approach lithography in a creative way, harnessing the delicacy of mark and tone characteristic to this medium.

This course is part of our well-established and respected Summer School Programme, which gives printmakers of all skills levels valuable experience working with some of Scotlands most experienced practioners. It also entitles you to a FREE 4-month Associate Membership, which allows you to use the studio and consolidate your skills after the course.
