Experience the enjoyable and versatile method of 'printing with light' at the Photopolymer Plate Relief Printing & Tonal Etching workshop. This small and friendly class, led by experienced tutor Leslie Bell, will take place on December 9th and 10th in Colchester at the Wivenhoe Printworks venue. 

During this workshop, participants will discover the fascinating Photo-polymer process, also known as 'Solar Plate'. This safe and exciting method allows you to create printing plates using UV light. Whether you prefer relief or intaglio printing, this process enables you to transfer black and white or halftone images onto specially coated metal plates. 

You'll have the opportunity to experiment with various source materials, such as line and tonal drawings, abstract or figurative designs, and even found materials like flowers and plants. Additionally, photographic and collage images can also be incorporated. By exploring these source materials, you'll learn how to create unique and captivating photo-polymer plates, resulting in a variety of printed line, tone, and texture.

No prior experience is required, as this workshop is suitable for beginners and experienced printmakers looking for a refresher. All necessary materials, including the UV light system and prepared plates, will be provided, allowing you to focus on your creative image-making. 

After the sessions, you have the option to purchase additional photo-polymer plates to continue your artistic journey at home. The best part? This process can be done using natural sunlight, eliminating the need for special chemicals or facilities.
