RoyThis is a good example of the kinds of results that come out of the first session. We work on A5 sized paper. Colour is limited to black. This forces a focus on playing around with *contrast* in making these compositions. _ <a href="https://yoroy.eu/tags/printmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#printmaking</a> <a href="https://yoroy.eu/tags/print" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#print</a>&play <a href="https://yoroy.eu/tags/monoprint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#monoprint</a>

David JONESA while ago when i saw in the book See Red Women’s Workshop a reprint of poster showing how to make posters, i've wanted to try it out. That project bore fruit at the weekend when the staple-gun came back from long-term loan, and i could tack on the organza to the wooden frame. Then it was time to cut a stencil, and... squeegee a print off! Fun (and terrifying) project and will try again.
