About this event
Pigmented Paper 1 Day Workshop With Lisa Jennings Give yourself the day to play and have fun using fluid acrylic paints creating pigmented papers. Come play and experiment making multiple sheets of your own pigmented paper. I will share with you the different kinds of paper I use in my studio and some paper history. We will cover 3 different types of pigmented paper using mulberry paper which is a very durable fiber. This is a great class to take if you are wanting to expand your mixed media fodder or just have fun. You’ll received a handout of the inventory list of products and where to purchase them. 1. Mono printing which we will use old glazed butcher block cutting boards to print our papers on. 2. Geli Plate printing is the new cool for creating interesting abstract pieces. There are endless ways to use a gel plate. 3. Batik resist is my newest of additions to my work with paper. It is the use of wax resist on paper or textiles to create one layer or multiple layers of color through. I will talk about the history of Batik resist and we will explore all the different ways to print with singular and multiple colors. It’s easy to get lost in the intricacy of using the wax with multiple designs, layers of color and using printing with wood blocks. Disclaimer: Paper pigmenting can be addictive and add a lot of joy to your life!
