Multiple Plate Photopolymer Printmaking Workshop with Dianne Longley
Saturday 23 & Sunday 24 November 2019 From 10am - 5pm
Cost: $220
We will make A5 photopolymer plates with either drawn or photographic images, or a combination of drawn
and photo imagery, to create and print multiple plates in register. As well as inking the plates in different
colours, we can also add a la poupeé inking and stencil colour printing relief and intaglio together. If you
did the first workshop you can create additional plates to overprint or underprint your existing plates.
On day-one we will concentrate on producing 2-3 plates. Consider using photographs, iPhone photographs,
drawings and textures to create your plates. Some test exposures will be necessary to ascertain correct UV
exposure times. If you want to use drawings I will have A5 double matte drafting film to work on. You might
want to create a line drawing on one piece of drafting film and use texture and tone on your second piece
of drafting film. There is a lot of diversity possible in your image making so bring lots of resources.
On day-two we will be inking and printing, and experimenting with colour inking techniques. We will be
using Miraclon DS94 intaglio photopolymer (solarplate) plates in A5 size. (Available from Karen O’meara:
0407 729 131 , Avflex 108-110 Carnarvon Street, Silverwater NSW 2128).
