Creative Collagraphs
With Carol Nunan

Saturday and Sunday | Oct 15/16| 10.00 – 16.00 |

A collagraph is a textured surface on cardboard created from a variety of household materials that are sealed and printed. The range of textures and colours you can print off a collagraph plate are limitless. Carol Nunan has years of experience making and printing her own collagraphs and she will guide you through the process of creating a plate and printing it in both monochrome and colour. Her demonstrations will include a wide range of cutting, sticking and spreading possibilities to achieve both subtle marks and powerful tones in the finished prints. Carol will demonstrate multi-colour printing that is both speedy and satisfying. You will also receive individual guidance on how to construct your image and get the best out of the plate when printing. Suitable for complete beginners and those who want to progress their ideas in this medium.

CAROL NUNAN (HNDip Visual Communications (hons.) trained as a graphic designer at The National College of Art & Design (NCAD), Dublin, Ireland. A monotype course with Rebecca became the catalyst for a new career as a fine artist printmaker. Carol has led many printmaking workshops for children and adults. She also exhibits and sells her work through a number of galleries in the North East.
