Participants will delve into traditional and nontraditional methods of screen printing and monotype techniques, combining hand-drawn and photo-based imagery to create unique prints that emphasize texture, color, movement, and gesture. This hands-on session is designed for artists of all levels seeking to expand their practice through experimental approaches to screen printing. The workshop will include demonstrations, guided studio time, and an opportunity for individual exploration. Focus will also be centered on fostering a safe, creative environment of collaboration.
