Here are some photos from Toni's adult Screen Printing Workshop at Auckland Botanical Gardens that coincides with their Sculpture in the Gardens. The theme for the printmaking was 'Building your own garden'........................... A very busy time was had and the 2 workshops were booked out!
The recent
printing workshop at Auckland Botanical Gardens was both informative and
enjoyable.
Artist Toni Mosley
demonstrated not only her vast knowledge of printing but also her talent as a
teacher.
The workshop was
based around a botanical theme. All of the materials and screens were supplied.
We covered many
processes like how to screen the ink onto paper, layering up of
images on one page, registering an image to print, types of paper...
The workshop gave
me an insight into how complex and subtle the screen printing process can be.
Toni can have up to
15 layers of print on one of her art pieces.
The day long work
shop left me happy with what I had achieved but also wanting to find out more
about printing.
