Take printmaking beyond the studio our first ever two-day workshop combining plein air painting with expressive monoprint techniques. We'll begin at Remarque Print Workshop with a one-hour introduction to materials, portable studio setup, and Megan Morgan's simple method for creating painterly monoprints without a press. We'll then carpool to the beautiful Albuquerque BioPark Botanic Garden, where we'll spend the afternoon painting directly from nature, gathering color studies, textures, and compositions inspired by the landscape. At the end of the day, we'll return to the workshop to organize our artwork and prepare for printing.
On day two, we'll print the plein air paintings created on our plexiglass plates using both hand-printing techniques and Remarque's presses. Students may continue painting from reference photos or use Remarque’s back garden as inspiration for more prints. Megan will demonstrate printing on a variety of papers—from delicate rice and mulberry papers to soaked printmaking papers such as Arches 88—and discuss how different papers, printing methods, and pressure affect the final image. Students will leave with a collection of original monoprints, practical techniques for creating painterly prints both in the field and the studio, and the confidence to continue exploring this portable printmaking process.
