VIRTUAL WORKSHOP
Innovative Woodcut Methods: blocks, jigsaws and the laser cutter
Jan 12 - 29, 2021
Every Tuesday, Thursday & Friday, 1-4PM MST
Concept
Broaden your relief printmaking skills to include fun and innovative methods with laser cutters. This exciting virtual workshop examines how laser-cut blocks can expand the possibilities of a playful and multilayered approach to making hand-pulled prints. We move fluidly between digital and analog processes, exploring and learning how each can inform our printmaking process and contribute to a flexible, evolving practice of art making. Individual files are laser etched at Anderson Ranch and mailed back to students to print with by hand. Everyone leaves the workshop with files, blocks, finished prints, and ideas of how to integrate technology into their printmaking practices.
This three week workshop will use Zoom Video Conferencing software (download free from Zoom.com) to facilitate the class sessions. An Anderson Ranch staff member will coordinate the online platform. Further details will be emailed to registrants.

In this workshop, advanced printmakers explore photographic and hand-drawn imagery with film positives on pre-sensitized photo plates as well as direct mark making on ball-grained aluminum plates. Prior background in lithography or extensive work in other printmaking media is the foundation for exploration of image preparation, plate processing, and printing techniques to develop an understanding of efficient methods for production of consistent lithographic editions. *This workshop does not require that students be proficient in lithography, but they must have significant experience in the field of printmaking.

Building Layers in Monoprint
Laura Berman
Tuition $1,345
Code R0908-25
Taking an exploratory approach to image making, this workshop combines a variety of collage and printmaking techniques. Monoprint techniques are taught in combination with archival collage techniques, with an emphasis on color and printed layers. Students are encouraged to work beyond the first layer of printed imagery to create a new body of work that extends in size and has no technical limitations. With a focus on color, shape, line, and pattern, the goal of this workshop is to further each student’s image vocabulary using printmaking and collage.
