Mokulito with Monotype

This is an outline of what to expect for this course. Over the course of 2 days, you’ll work in our exceptional printmaking facilities supported by our technical team:  

Day 1 

Becky will introduce you to the printmaking space and give a demonstration of preparing and printing a mokulito block. You'll then prepare and draw on your own wood for printing the following day.  

The afternoon will be spent exploring colour mixing and the monotype process to create backgrounds and stencils for combining with the mokulito prints. You'll have the option to add woodcut marks to your block too. 

Day 2 

We’ll print our mokulito blocks in the morning, this will be a collaborative process with the group working in pairs and Becky providing support.  

The afternoon will be spent making monotype and woodcut edits to the mokulito prints. 

​​You’ll be engaging in hands-on processes and techniques throughout the course in our exceptional printmaking facilities.
