ART 203: Experimenting with Monoprint

Monotypes are made by applying ink to a changing and unprocessed surface, such as glass, acetate, wax paper or metal. These plates are then printed, creating distinctive and painterly prints. This course is a studiobased course exploring the forms of monotype and monoprint within printmaking. Experimentation with material and well developed ideas are important in this course, as we are working with constantly evolving and unique results. Craftsmanship, visual concern, self-expression, and concept will be emphasized during image development and studio work. Through discussion and critiques, students will become more articulate in communicating their ideas and speaking about art.
