Artober: 31 Days of Inky Monoprints

If you can trace an image, you can make a blotted line monoprint. Artist Extraordinaire Courtney Cerruti has spent years incorporating this technique into her art practice and shows you everything she’s learned in this daily practice class series. First made popular by Andy Warhol, this technique utilizes just a few unique materials that create inky outlines that can then be colored in and embellished. In addition to perfecting your monoprinting technique, learn how to make composite images, work on black paper, and paint with metallics. Inkblots and turn-of-the-century ghost signatures round out the month. Whether you color (or paint) in the lines or outside of them, you’ll be inspired by Courtney’s eclectic influences and thoughtful instruction. Learn how to:

• Choose the best nib pens and paper 
• Set up materials to master the drawing/printing process 
• Use a nib pen and inkwell 
• Combine images and text to compositions         
• Make aesthetic decisions (color, line, etc.) to create a particular visual impact
