Hands-On Akua Monotype Demonstration
January 20, 2018 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Originally created by professional printmaker, Susan Rostow, Akua Intaglio® and Liquid Pigment® Inks have pushed artists well beyond the boundaries of traditional printmaking. These revolutionary inks possess unique working properties that allow artists creative opportunities unlike anything else on the market. Made from the highest-quality, lightfast pigments, Akua® Inks appeal to more than just printmakers. Artists from painters to mixed media artists, photographers to animators have found that Akua Inks open up possibilities beyond the expected.
Artists in attendance will receive an introduction to Akua inks and accessories by way of a hands-on demonstration on monotype printmaking. Attendees will have the opportunity to create their own prints using Akua Intaglio and Liquid Pigment Inks, experiencing first-hand how the unique working properties of these incredible inks lend themselves to a wide range of printmaking and other techniques/media. Attendees will print their own-of-a-kind designs using the Akua Pin Press. Each attendee will receive a sample of Akua Intaglio Ink and be entered for a chance to win an Akua Starter Set!
Demonstration will be conducted by Akua Demo Artist, Charlie Ciali.
