Learn about the fundamentals of printmaking by exploring the soft velvety lines of Transfer mono prints, the expressive and textural effects achieved in Subtractive mono printing and the endless possibilities through layering in Experimental mono printing.

The bold and graphic nature of Linocut printing will also be explored in this course as students are encouraged to develop and carve an original design that will be blind embossed, enhanced by china colle, subtly hand coloured using inks and ghost printed.
