Monoprinting uses a plate and stencil process and multiple layers of oil-based ink to make unique prints.
This process is a great first introduction into printmaking – you’ll learn about inks and paper, and use our fantastic range of etching presses and equipment in the workshop.

Starting out with simple shapes and block colours you can build up monoprints with complex designs, textures and shades to create a series of prints onto paper.

Monoprinting is suitable for absolute beginners as well as those with some experience. People with an established artistic practice will find they get a lot of new ideas from the unexpected designs they produce. Those who aren’t that confident about their drawing and imagery will also get a lot out of monoprint – simple shapes and an open mind will get you a long way with this process!
