INTRODUCTION TO MONOTYPE
Join a one-day intensive workshop with artist Fiona Fouhy learning her painterly monotype process! Learn and practice a variety of approaches to monotype printing. Monotype prints are entirely unique and created through a process of oily inks being pressed and transferred from a flat surface onto paper. Gestural and textural marks can be achieved through the use of a wide variety of tools which can either remove or apply the ink to your plate. Through these tools, you will explore the boundaries of mark making with Monotypes. Monotype/ Monoprinting is a very flexible and liberating process that is useful for painters, printmakers and image makers of any kind. This workshop will allow you to experiment with both black and coloured inks, using Fiona’s portable press. By the end of the day you will have created a varied collection of very original prints.
In order to maintain enough physical distance, this class is limited to 5 students, therefore a great deal of individual attention is given. The class takes place in a private studio in Stoke Newington, just south of Clissold Park (access up two flights of stairs). We will break for an hour for lunch from 12:30-1:30. Tea and biscuits provided! (Masks must be worn by all participants.)
Fiona Fouhy graduated in Fine Art from Central St Martins in 2007 and has made monorptining her primary medium for the last decade. Fiona has taught workshops at East London Printmakers and other venues and exhibits and sells her prints widely.
* Dates are subject to change if government rules prevent us from meeting in person. We are unable to meet under Tier 3 and above. If rescheduling is necessary, we will try to find a date that all can join, and if not, refunds will be made.

FURTHER EXPLORATIONS IN MONOTYPE
If you've already completed an 'Intro' day with Fiona, expand your skills and further explore the potential of monotype by learning additional techniques, including 'dry point' and 'chine collé'! Dry point allows you to repeatedly print marks or a drawn image while varying other elements of your prints, and chine collé is a technique for including elements of collage in your prints. As with the 'Intro' workshop, 'Further Explorations' will allow you to experiment with both black and coloured inks, using Fiona’s portable press. By the end of the day you will have created another exciting series of prints.

Curious about oil painting? This is a one-day course to introduce you to the basics of oil painting. Oil painting can be intimidating and seem difficult to do at home, but it actually very doable! Whether you are a curious absolute beginner or someone who wants to get back into oil painting, this day course will help you get up and running. We will cover basics as palette set-up, types of brushes, mediums, painting surfaces, paints and various ways of beginning a painting. You will practise colour mixing and brushwork and take inspiration from a wide variety of amazing paintings from art history. In the afternoon you will get the chance to paint a small still-life. At the end of the day, you will take away a list of materials and notes, a small painting, and basic skills to get going with oil paints.

This is an opportunity for people with little or lots of experience to spend an intensive day exploring colour, colour mixing and colour relationships. In the morning, we will go over the basics of palette set-up, look at interesting ways colours 'interact' in modern and old master paintings, discuss some basic colour theory, and complete several quick colour exercises. After lunch you'll have the chance to work on a longer painting based on a landscape image, incorporating your experiences with colour from the morning. You will leave the workshop having been immersed in colour, with a better understanding of how colours interact and having tried out some new approaches to colour in oil painting.
