COME VISIT! The PlatemarkX Studio is now open again to visitors. I do not have set days and times – I just open it up whenever I can to visitors. You may make an appointment to visit by contacting me at: info@platemarkx.com.
TAKE A WORKSHOP! Workshops are also happening! I’ve teamed up with Atelier Meridan and together we are offering Letterpress workshops and Linoleum Block workshops that are taught out of the PlatemarkX studio. I have 2 workshops coming up:
PlatemarkX Linoleum Block Printing Workshop
Saturday & Sunday, March 12th – 13th, 4-hrs (10am-2pm)
Price: $180.00 + $25 supply fee
This 2-day workshop is a great way for any beginner to learn the fun craft of linoleum block printing. If you love printmaking and are interested in how linoleum block printing can also be incorporated with letterpress, this is the workshop for you! Learn how to carve a basic design for a 1-color print on a table top press. Don’t have a press? Don’t worry! This workshop will also teach how to print a block by hand without a press. Each student will go home with a mini print edition from their very own carved block!
All tools and supplies provided. No previous experience required. Just come with your ideas to carve, print, and have a great time getting inky!
PlatemarkX Combo Printing Workshop
Saturday & Sunday, April 23rd – 24th, 4-hrs (10am-2pm)
Price: $180.00 + $15 supply fee
This 2-day workshop is a great way to learn how to combine the fun craft of linoleum block printing with letterpress. If you love printmaking and are intersted in how linoleum block printing can also be incorporrated with letterpress, this is the workshop for you! This workshop will teach how to lock up a pre-cut linoleum block and print it with hand-set type! Pre-cut linoleum blocks must be no larger than 4×5 inches and mounted to fit on the press. Don’t have a block of your own? Don’t fret! There will be linoleum blocks available for students to use to incorporate into their design. Each student will go home with a mini print edition of their own
Note: Previous experience carving linoleum blocks encouraged but not necessary. A pre-cut linoleum block to bring to class is encouraged but not necessary. If bringing your own linoleum block to print, please make sure it is no larger than 4×5 inches in size and it is a mounted block.
