No Press Printing Free Instructional Video


I love printing – and have developed a way of using acrylics to print from my lino plates, and other plates including collagraphs. Along with the chapter in my book “Using Chroma Art Materials” I have a free video on this process. Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkQHSu4hbTM Atelier Acrylic for no-press printing in mixed media
Both my books are available through my website www.triciareust.com.au
I like to use acrylic paint for printing as this allows me to use my prints as collage elements.

“Scrub” is a pastel and mixed media on canvas – I often print on tissue and then add these prints to my works as collage.

“Ancient Notes” – an example where I have used the print as the basis for the canvas.

Mixed Media Workshop – Bundaberg

I am looking forward to being up in Bundaberg once again this coming weekend.

—–

In this workshop we will be looking at how drawing can be an integral element in mixed media work. The process will be to briefly cover basic design principles; collage and texture the canvas surfaces on the first day, and complete the works with paint and/or dry drawing media. Drawings can be incorporated in the collage and/or drawn directly on to the canvas.
It is optional if you wish to add already existing drawings in with your collage, and if you wish to draw on your canvas.
We will explore completing one smaller work with a minimal approach, and another larger work incorporating all the techniques to be covered, including glazing, printing, stencilling and stamping.
Because we cover so many techniques, it is good to have one theme to harmonise the work and to be a repetitive motif eg leaves; birds; chooks; fruit; or, if you prefer an abstract approach, geometric shapes such as circles; rectangles; triangles etc.
—–
We will be working on the techniques to place drawings in a mixed media work on canvas; establishing a strong design in collage; printing; stamping; stencilling; glazing colour; bringing it all together with a motif.

 

Contact Art Plus ph 4151 4665 for details and bookings.

Many of the works in this post are available on canvas or paper in any size as Giclee Reproductions with a signed certificate of authenticity. Go to www.buyartnow.com.au/tricia-reust
