Join us as we embrace the joy of monotype printmaking inspired by William Park, my dear friend and mentor. In this workshop we will create monotypes embracing the spontaneous essence of the monotype medium as our guide. The workshop will support various interpretations of your desired subject matter including representational, abstract, imagined, or direct observation. This workshop will include a combination of instruction and demonstration, with an emphasis on studio time. A range of additive and reductive monotype techniques will be covered, along with the use of stencils and color floods, with a focus on impulse, and experimentation.
*All necessary supplies will be included/provided. Paper will be sold on a per sheet basis, please budget an extra $10-20 for paper depending upon how much you use.

BIG NEWS!
My work is featured throughout a newly released printmaking/monotype book by a French publisher, AND, one can purchase it at the Louvre bookstore. My niece just returned from Paris, where she picked up a copy from this iconic location, and shot some awesome photos for me. Currently it is published in French and sold in France, Canada, Belgium and Switzerland... I hear they may translate it to English. But for the time being, you can simply fly to Paris and grab a copy at The Louvre. 😂 Or ask for it at any bookstore that sells art books in France, Belgium, Switzerland or Canada.

INSPIRED BY PLACE
Open-Air Monotype Workshop with Nanette Wallace & Lisa Ellis
May 18-19, 2024, Plas Newydd Farm, Ridgefield, Washington
In this workshop we will create monotypes outdoors, inspired by our surroundings at the beautiful Plas Newydd farm. This large family farm has a diverse landscape, located alongside the Lewis River, with rolling fields, mature forests, old barns, wild flowers and plenty of watery goodness to draw inspiration from, and a lovely farmhouse for us to take refuge in. Inspiration can take many forms when working in and around nature, and any direction that inspires you will be supported in this workshop, representational or non-representation. We will create one of a kind prints on paper, monotypes, with an emphasis on light, value, impulse, experimentation and joy!
Location:
This workshop will take place on a gorgeous private family-owned farm located 40 minutes north of Portland Oregon, in Ridgefiled Washington, alongside the Lewis River. (More About the farm here)
About the Instructors:
Nanette Wallace’s & Lisa Ellis will be teaching the workshop as a creative team. Nanette and Lisa met at art school in the early 90s and have been good friends in art and life ever since. As instructors they provide a balance of knowledge and support that is both insightful and encouraging.
This workshop was a lot of fun, hope to do another like it in 2025.
