About the Event

Join artist Marcia Ley for this fascinating workshop learning the print technique of 'Chine-Colle'.

The word 'Chine-Colle' is French, meaning 'China-Glue', because the tissue paper used in the technique originally came from China.  Glue was used to stick the tissue to the paper that was going to be printed.

Chine-Colle is a beautiful technique -  adding colour to a black and white print by making a paper collage background to print on.

Both the collage creating and printing over the top are really fun to do and requires no prior experience of printmaking - really beautiful prints can be achieved, each one being unique.

In the session you will make one polystyrene printing plate and up to 6 collaged backgrounds to print on, plus a few test prints.  There will be lots of lovely coloured tissue paper, along with other patterned papers to use for your collage and then different coloured…
