Woodblock Printing Workshop

Learn the basics of relief printmaking in this intensive workshop at Wilder Hill Press amid the beautiful landscape of Wilder Hill Gardens. Design and carve a plate, before printing your own limited series of images with non-toxic Akua inks. We will cover ghost printing, reduction printmaking, and selective inking as ways to introduce color into your images. No experience is required.
Cyanotype Printing and Bookmaking Workshop
Saturday, September 28, 9 am to 4 pm
$160. (Includes all materials)
Learn two important, fun techniques in one workshop! First, we will explore the historical process of Cyanotype printing to produce gorgeous, Prussian blue images. After creating a mock-up of your books, we will fashion your images into two significant book types; a Codex and an Accordion. The addition of text, collage, threading, additional toning, or color are all possibilities. We will learn about bookmaking papers, cover material, bindings, and much more. A variety of handmade books will be on display in the studio.
