Visiting resident artist Kathy Boyle is a New Zealand printmaker who is exploring techniques for  printmaking on a curved surface.

This workshop will explore a range of techniques using plaster to create single or multiple objects that can then be carved or further enhanced using a variety of mediums.

It will use the traditional intaglio, relief and collagraph printmaking, chine colle techniques and you discover how this method of printmaking can expand the artist’s repertoire from the two to the three dimensional.
