Collograph Printing – Part 1 (part 2 tomorrow)
More details here Printing Workshops with Catherine Jones
Time 2.00pm to 3.45pm
maximum 15 adults

Collograph is weird exciting kind of experimental printing that is half way between relief  (image is left after cutting away- the ink is on the surface) and intaglio (image is cut into the plate and the ink goes into the gaps).

Prepare a printing plate or two the first session-  a small one and a larger one that could be an image e.g. a landscape, buildings, an animal. So bring some photos to inspire you! Do bring your own card, textured things like wallpaper, fabric, string, vegetable nets, tablet foils etc to use to glue on a cardboard  plate, I will bring lots of stuff but the more we have, the more choice you’ll have to create something beautiful,  then we’ll coat it with shellac or boot polish to make sure it’s ready for printing the next day.

On Day 2 we will use thick paper, soak it and then have fun printing from our plates! Be ready to be surprised! This is messy. I will provide disposable gloves but if you are allergic please bring your own that you are safe with. Don’t expect perfect nails to survive!

£30 per person (price includes tomorrow’s workshop)- booking online at http://www.ticketsource.co.uk/BCTH or at BC Town Hall
