MASTER WORKSHOP
Tutor: Masahiro Kawara
Translator: Toshihiko Ikeda
Explore waterless lithography with Master lithographer Kawara Masahiro of Kawalabo! Printmaking Laboratory in Japan.
Waterless lithography is a direct and fun printmaking technique. It is quicker, safer and less toxic than traditional lithography, while still allowing for a similar range of direct gesture and mark making.
Collagraphs are the perfect introduction to making prints! They are made by collaging and cutting different textures on a thin board base. They can be built up from any material with texture, from wallpaper to leaves. It’s an accessible, affordable and an environmentally friendly printmaking technique that can produce exciting results!
The course is designed for beginners and those who would like a refresher printmaking course. So get stuck in to printmaking!
Course Starts 9th September.
