Anderson Ranch Summer Workshop Multiple Technique Intaglio Monoprinting: August 23-27 taught by Seattle Artist, Amanda Knowles. Create prints from multiple matrices (intaglio plates, relief blocks, etc.) focusing on numerous variations rather than a single finished edition. We investigate monoprinting in a variety of one-of-a-kind prints with minimal platework, experimenting with multiple outcomes. Come with ideas about how single images could work well together, but without a firm idea of how the final images will look. Bring drawings, photos, images and plates you have collected or made over the years to combine with beautiful prints. For more information on this class please visit:
