The first of three sessions in the printmaking studion, starting with experiments in monoprint.
From subtly shaded landscapes to whirls of string and studies in complex patterns. As always, the personality of the maker seems to find its way into the work.
The assignment is to make twenty prints each. That seems like a lot in the beginning but usually everybody easily hits that target. It helps that I don’t allow prints to be thrown away.
Two reasons: 1) you don’t decide in the moment of making. 2) even the crappiest piece can be used as a starting point for next weeks session. Which is all about letterpress with wood type.
When you share, with whom are you sharing? With the others in your (social) network, sure. But with the owner of the platform on which you share your work as well.
Change share into publish and content into work: don’t share content but publish your work.
Yes, you can take it that seriously. So. Where do you publish your work?
