SUMMARY:Marker-resist Etching Workshops with Jill O'Sullivan
DESCRIPTION:Join Umbrella and master printmaker Jill O'Sullivan for two experimental etching workshops. Participants of all skill levels will be introduced to a new printmaking technique combining traditional etching with the illustrative benefits of permanent markers.\nParticipants will need to attend both workshop sessions to draw\, etch\, proof\, print and experiment with backgrounds. Jill will provide ongoing demonstrations and participants will be encouraged to experiment and develop their skill base. Participants will each produce small editions of their work. Participants are required to wear covered footwear\, and are encouraged to bring their own sketch book\, image ideas\, and COVID-safe masks. All other materials (including copper plates and paper) and morning tea will be provided.
