Traditionel træsnit kursus med farver. Der vil blive undervist i farvetræsnit udført på flere plader – en for hver farve – i princippet blå, rød, gul og de overtryksfarver, det kan medføre. Det er den grundlæggende form for farvetræsnit, der, udover selve det at snitte i træ og undersøge forskellige skæremåder, er en god øvelse i farveforståelse og træning af vilje og hukommelse. Medbring gerne hvad I har af træsnitsknive, skitser, blyanter etc. Ud over kursusprisen vil der være udgifter til materialer, som kan købes på kurset.

Der undervises alle 4 dage kl. 10-16
Max 8 deltagere
Pris: 1.800 kr.

3-dages kursus i ætseteknikker for begyndere og lidt øvede. På kurset arbejder vi med det helt grundlæggende inden for ætsning – eller får det genopfrisket. Der bliver med udgangspunkt i en kobberplade på 10 x 10 cm lavet stregætsning og akvatinte (gråtonerne i en ætsning), og pladen trykkes efterfølgende. For at udnytte tiden bedst muligt, bedes deltagerne medbringe en lille, enkel skitse/tegning til ætsningen, hvor der indgår felter med hvid, sort og 2-3 gråtoner. Materialer kan købes på kurset. Koldnål og pensler kan købes/lånes.

MARTS 15-17 marts Eksperimenternde Linoleumstryk med Hardy Ernst

Vi ætser, skærer, sliber, præger, ridser og meget mere i linoleumspladerne og kan derved opnå utrolige effekter og strukturer i pladerne. Sammen med udskårne plader fungerer det optimalt. Vi trykker flerfarvetryk og med tykke og tynde lag tryksværte.

Dit syn på linoleumstrykkets muligheder vil helt sikkert være forandret efter dette kursus.

3 dage kl. 10–16.                                                   Max. 8 deltagere                                                     Pris: 1.800 kr.

Udgifter til materialer: afhængigt af forbrug mellem 150-300 kr.

 

JUNI 15.- 17. juni. Cyanotypi ved Lone V. Petersen

Cyanotypi er magi og kemi. Det er en printteknik hvor solen bliver brugt som eksponeringskilde. Det er en legende og eksperimenterende teknik, hvor man ikke altid helt kan styre resultatet. Det er også en af verdens ældste fotografiske printteknikker opfundet i 1842 af John Herschel. Teknikken blev brugt i 1843 af den britiske botaniker Anna Atkins til sine smukke og sanselige cyanotypi'er af tang og alger.

Ved at blande to forskellige kemikalier og vand opnås en lysfølsom emulsion, der påføres papir (eller andre materialer, der kan tåle at blive lagt i vand).

Blomster, planter, genstande, negativer, positiver osv. lægges på papiret under en glasplade, eksponeres i sollys og fremkaldes derefter i vand. De områder der er belyst, vil fremstå i en dyb, mørk blå farve, de ikke belyste områder i forskellige grader af hvid/materialets farve. Vi vil eksperimentere med belysningstider, "våd cyanotypi", tilsætning af salt, krydderier, sæbeskum osv., og vi vil afprøve blegning og toning af cyanotypierne.

Medbring gerne blomster og planter (evt. pressede) og digitale fotos som kan bruges til at lave transparenter, flade genstande, skabeloner ... og masser af solskin!

Udgifter til fælles materialer: ca. 200 kr. - derudover det papir, du selv bruger.

Der undervises alle 3 dage kl. 10-16
Max 8 deltagere
Pris: 1.800 kr.

 

NOVEMBER 24.-27.11. WOODCUT by Jens Bohr

Traditional woodcut course with colors. Colored woodcuts made on several plates – one for each color – will be taught, in principle blue, red, yellow and the overprint colors that can result. It is the basic form of color woodcut, which, in addition to the act of carving wood and examining different ways of cutting, is a good exercise in color understanding and training of will and memory. Feel free to bring what you have of wood carving knives, sketches, pencils etc. In addition to the course price, there will be costs for materials that can be bought on the course.
Classes are held every 4 days at 10-16
Max 8 participants
Price: DKK 1,800. materials are not included

FEBRUARY 2-4 February ETCHING by Trine Anderschou

3-day course in etching techniques for beginners and slightly experienced printmakers. On the course, we work with the very basics of etching. Based on a 10 x 10 cm copper plate, line etching and aquatint (the grey tones in an etching) are made, and the plate is subsequently printed. To use the time as best as possible, participants are asked to bring a small, simple sketch/drawing for the etching, which includes fields with white, black and 2-3 shades of grey. Materials can be purchased on the course. Cold needles and brushes can be bought/borrowed. Classes last 3 days, from 10–16.

Max 8 participants                                                                                                                                           Price: DKK 1,800. Costs for materials are not included.

MARCH 15-17 March Experimental linoleum print with Hardy Ernst

We etch, cut, grind, emboss, scratch and much more in the linoleum plates and you can achieve incredible effects and structures in the linoleumplates. Together with cut-out plates, it works optimally. We print multi-colour and with thick and thin layers of ink.

Your view of of linoleum printing will certainly change after this course. Max. 8 participants

3 days at 10–16.
Price: DKK 1,800. materials are not included

 

APRIL 05-07 April, COLLOGRAPHY by Line Eskestad

JUNE 15 - 17 June. CYANOTYPE  by Lone V. Petersen

Cyanotype is magic and chemistry. It is a printing technique where the sun is used as an exposure source. It is a playful and experimental technique where you cannot always completely control the result. It is also one of the world's oldest photographic printing techniques invented in 1842 by John Herschel. The technique was used in 1843 by the British botanist Anna Atkins for her beautiful and sensuous cyanotypes of seaweed and algae. By mixing two different chemicals and water, a light-sensitive emulsion is obtained, which is applied to paper (or other materials that can withstand being placed in water).

We will experiment with lighting times, "wet cyanotypes", adding salt, spices, soap suds, etc. and we will experiment with bleaching and toning the cyanotypes. Feel free to bring flowers and plants (possibly pressed) and digital photos that can be used to make transparencies, flat objects, templates ... and lots of sunshine! Classes last 3 days, from 10–16.

Max 8 participants                                                                                                                                        Price: DKK 1,800. Costs for common materials: approx. DKK 200 - in addition to the paper you use yourself.
