Botanical Monoprints Half Day Printing Workshop

Discover the beauty of letting nature make the mark.

In this hands-on half-day workshop, artist and printmaker Lynn Bailey introduces the magical process of botanical monoprinting, where plants and flowers quite literally "draw" themselves through printmaking.Perfect for complete beginners and experienced printmakers alike, this session explores how botanical prints can be used as striking standalone artworks or incorporated into more complex compositions.

While the technique itself is accessible, Lynn shares the subtle tips and tricks that transform simple plant prints into expressive, finished pieces.You'll learn how to select and prepare plant samples, apply ink effectively (including using graduated colour), and create clean, well-composed prints.

The workshop also introduces essential materials such as printing inks and papers, paper dampening techniques, and professional approaches to post-production finishing that can really bring your work to life.This is a rare opportunity to gain in-person insight into Lynn's much-admired botanical printing methods—something that's often requested online, but difficult to fully explain through text alone.

Expect practical guidance, creative inspiration, and plenty of time to experiment.
