NEW WORKSHOP ADDED TO THE 2026 PROGRAM: We’re excited to announce a new one-day workshop with Seraphina Martin, exploring the rich and surprising possibilities of viscosity colour printing.
Viscosity printing uses inks of different consistencies, applied with large rollers, to print multiple colours from a single inked plate in one pass through the press. The results can be bold, layered and unexpected, with up to five colours printed at once.
Participants are invited to bring existing plates to transform through colour, stencils and botanical materials. These may include collagraph plates, solar plates, drypoints or TetraPak plates. Inks and paper are provided, and participants will finish the workshop with a beautiful portfolio of fine art prints.
Seraphina Martin studied printmaking at the National Art School in Paris before moving to Sydney, where she has taught at the Sydney University Art Workshop for many years. She studied viscosity colour printing at Atelier 17 under master printer William Hayter, who developed the technique.
This is a wonderful opportunity to learn a dynamic colour process from an artist with deep knowledge of the method.
