Solarplate Printing Workshop

SUNDAY, APRIL 30, 2023 AT 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM

Dan Welden will be conducting a Mini Solarplate Workshop at CEED. Using ‘nature’ as a motif, artists will be able to create images reflecting the beautiful grounds of CEED! The three hour event will involve instruction on the Solarplate process. Then drawing on special ‘grained glass’, processing and watching the master pull your print for you. Each impression will be pulled on beautiful European paper. Final art will be considered for an exhibition by each artist.
