For those of you who miss the annual Monothon (postponed for 2009) or if you have an urge to immerse yourself in the monotype process here is the perfect opportunity.

Nicknamed "Pamper and Production," these very special full day assisted sessions of monotype printing are geared to give you the greatest amount of personal attention and production output. Each full day session is 7 hours of work time plus a lunch break. Included are all Akua inks, monotype plates, set up and clean up services, use of tools such as brayers, ink knives, etc. Arches 88 paper is available for purchase ($3.50/ sheet) during the sessions. The only supplies you might consider bringing are any personal tools as well as brushes and collage material. And best thing is that Ron Pokrasso will do all of the printing- as a participant you can spend the entire time concentrating on developing your imagery. As a Master printer and instructor Ron can offer assistance and education at whatever level is required. It will be a total production session with some combination of learning techniques and creating finished works.
