Monoprinting Matisse: The Cut Outs

“All I thought of was making my colours sing” - Matisse

Make your own Matisse Masterpieces with LDG’s Printmaking course! Sign up for one, two or all three classes. Each class within the course focusses on a different printmaking technique: Drypoint, Monotype and Chine Collé. Suitable for all levels. £120(+bf) instead of £135(+bf) when you purchase tickets for all 3! 

Known for both his use of exquisite colour and fabulously fluid drawing style, we will be taking Matisse’s expressive draughtsmanship, painting and collaged work to inspire and develop exciting ways of print making.

In MONOPRINTING MATISSE: The Cut-Outs, we will be taking your favourite Matisse collages and using them to create prints with a special printmaking technique called Chine-collé, in which an image is transferred onto a thin, colour paper that is bonded to a heavier backing paper. During this day class you will be shown exciting ways of adding collage, colour and texture to your printed work. All materials included.
