Clay monoprinting workshop with Kim Henderson
Clay monoprinting workshop with Kim Henderson: 27 January
Join ceramic artist Kim Henderson for this print transfer workshop and demonstration, Saturday 27 January, 9am-4pm
In this workshop the emphasis will be on coloured slip design transfer-printing on plaster bats. This is a rewarding technique often yielding unexpected results – all is revealed in reverse!
Kim uses plaster bats like one would a painter’s canvas. Paper clay slip will be used in the process. For this workshop we’ll be focused on experimenting on small plaster bats. Ice-cream container size bats are ideal.
Kim will discuss the transfer methods she utilises in her design process; slip trailing, paper stencils and more.
Colour. Pattern. Design.
