Discover a playful and accessible approach to printmaking in this relaxed, hands-on workshop with artist Ruby Bradshaw.
Using soap and environmentally friendly water-soluble mediums, you'll explore a lesser-known form of monoprinting that produces beautifully unique and expressive results. With similarities to watercolour painting, this technique is especially enjoyable for those who have worked with watercolour before, though no previous experience is required.
This workshop focuses on experimentation, skill-building and creative exploration, encouraging participants to enjoy the process without pressure. Through guided exercises and practical demonstrations, you'll have the opportunity to play with colour, texture and mark-making while creating a collection of your own monoprints.
Whether you're looking to try a new creative technique, spend time making with friends, or enjoy a welcoming artistic experience, this session offers the perfect opportunity to get creative in a supportive studio environment.
