Commencing at 10.30 am & running through till 2.00 pm (taking 30 mins off for shared lunch) we will have a wonderful 3 hours to focus on ink mark-making and drawing , testing out papers of all kinds and sizes.
A DEMO on creating an Artist book from all your experiments will kick you off on a project to complete in your own time. INK and PAPER can be ideal materials to take along on a quiet holiday or as an outdoor activity. Something to keep in mind!
WORKING WITH INK is something I've cycled around with over decades... both as a support to my art practice, and especially since spending 11 weeks in Hong Kong on two residencies in 2017, as a more serious interest.
Research into the ink on paper traditions and particularly contemporary ink practice in Asia is one of my fascinations.
DURING OUR WORKSHOP:
We will take a mid-way break for refreshments and reflection on what we're exploring d\so bring something to share over a cuppa - various teas & coffee I'll provide.
All Art materials - ink and a wide range of paper surfaces - will be included in the $140 workshop fee. Mark-making tools will also be supplied.
