North Mayo Landscape in Watercolor and Watercolor Monotype.
The magnificent Mayo landscape is the focus of this watermedia-based workshop. We will paint locally outdoors and make watercolor monotypes indoors.
Watercolor is the art of visualizing colored light and manipulating water and gravity; it is a balancing act between spontaneity and control. We will cover the fundamental aspects of working with watercolor through demonstrations and exercises. Individual attention and group discussions will enhance the participant’s personal response to the medium.
Watercolor monotype combines the translucence and flowing marks of watercolor with the surprises
and freshness of printmaking. Explore these aspects of this water-based medium and more as you print with watercolor on plexiglass for an exciting combination of luminosity and complex color layering. Watercolor monotypes are just like other monotypes in as much as they produce single, unique images. However, the image is made with watercolors painted on plexiglass. The artist can manipulate wet pigment washes, wipe them away, use stencils etc. during the drawing process. We will make "one-pass" through the press prints, ghost prints and multi-layered images.
The cost of this workshop is $2,600 which includes tuition, shared cottage with private bedroom for 10 nights, lunch/dinner/dessert/tea/coffee, collection/dropoff to the bus/train stations in Ballina, full use of the Dolan/Maxwell library and facilities 24/7. Participants arrive on the 3rd and depart on the 13th of July (The workshop is for nine days with arrival and departure day making it eleven days).
