MONO PRINT

apply ink by rolling painting and scratching, then rolling the plate through
the press this is a more painterly approach to printing with lots of fun and
colorful results.

COLOGRAPH PRINTING
Colograph printing is accomplished by applying different
materials (such as cardboard, metal, tape or paint medium) to the printing
plate inking it and running it through the press. This process makes for lots
of very interesting shapes and textures. I once heard some one say, “If you can
ink it you can print it “

COPER PLATE ETCHING
This class we’ll learn to etch lines in a copper plate
etching with ferric chloride, a iron type of salt. After the lines are etched and printed tone

cool graphic look.
