March 16th and 17th at Swansea Print Workshop I’m running a course in woodcut printmaking using MDF.
“Q. Can you use MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) for woodcut prints?
A. Yes you can – as long as you get the technical details right.
Q. And how do I make sure that I get a nice quality print?
A. Again, it’s about getting the technical details right.
Q. And can I make these prints at home, without needing a specialist press?
A. Oh yes. But only if you get the technical details right.”
This short course covers: safety, cutting, tools and tool maintenance, sealants, choosing the right papers and inks, printing with chine collé, printing by hand and press. At the end of two days you’ll have at least two original prints, one monochrome and one with colour, and enough know-how to get stuck into making your own original woodcut prints with MDF.
And you’ll get a chance to use this fabulous Victorian Columbian Press …
