This particular process is favourable to those who prefer a more painterly effect to their prints, as gestural and textural marks can be achieved through the use of a wide variety of tools which can either remove or apply the ink to your plate. Through these tools, you will explore the boundaries of mark making with Monotypes. Suitable for both beginners and experienced printmakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCourse Structure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntro to workshop and each other\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHealth \u0026amp; Safety\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShort slide presentation of examples of monoprints\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDemonstration of additive \u0026amp; reductive approaches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDemonstration of using solvents within monoprinting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDemonstration of using masking and printing with flat objects\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDemonstration of my own monoprinting techniques with layering\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean up and evaluation. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Tutor\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFiona Fouhy’s practice covers broad themes of place, geology and history, celebrating the resilience of nature over millennia. She predominantly uses monotype techniques in her work using etching inks, rags and large rollers to create fast, expressive images; processes, materials and chance inform and evolve her practice. She has developed a technique of layering ink, pushing the early ‘ghost’ layers into the background, creating a strong depth of field. Fouhy studied at Central Saint Martins, London.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe has won multiple awards and was elected to associate membership by the Royal Society of Printers and Painters in 2023.Her work is held in public collections including the Ashmolean Museum, V\u0026amp;A Museum and the Central St Martins College Contemporary Collection. It is held in private collections throughout the UK, Europe, Australia and the USA. She is represented by Eames Fine Art, The Glasshouse Gallery and Rachel Bebb Contemporary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLeicester Print Workshop \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLeicester Print Workshop is the regional development centre for printmaking.
