Join York-based printmaker, Yvonne Hoggarth, for a creative and inspiring workshop making botanical prints using natural materials such as leaves, stems and seedheads.
In this half-day taster workshop you will have an introduction to botanical printmaking and a short demonstration. You will then use natural materials and textures to create unique, nature-inspired printing plates, sealed with aluminium foil tape. When it’s time to print, you will explore applying colours using different inking methods to create rich, varied outcomes. You will end the morning with a selection of beautiful botanical prints to take away, to frame as unique art or to gift as cards.
Throughout the day, Yvonne will be on hand to offer friendly guidance and practical tips to support you in developing your printmaking practice. Every stage will be clearly explained and demonstrated. She will also talk you through how you can start printmaking from home and the equipment you will need to get started.
No experience needed. This workshop is ideal for beginner / near beginner printmakers or anyone who enjoys crafting and nature and wants to use natural materials to create beautiful, unique prints.
All materials and teas/coffees will be provided but bring an apron to protect your clothes.
