September 12,13, & 14 Tim Hawkesworth will be teaching at RedBrick Studios in Beverly. The goal of the workshop is to develop your personal connection to drawing and expand your understanding of art, to work in a roomy, visually rich environment using materials that excite you. In this charged, supportive atmosphere Tim Hawkesworth will work with you one on one.
The workshop will encourage you to push the limits of your art and to take risks. Often a breakthrough will occur. Participants see drawing with new eyes and leave with a feeling of excitement for the possibilities opening up in their work.

Printmaking in the Studio all Weekend

2010, Uncategorized / /

I am producing lots of Monotype prints and some are even good. The Challenge to walk and gather objects to print with each day has been a good one. I have been using the Daniel Smith water soluable inks. I really like the rich color that they produce. The prints have been drying in a few days which is pretty good too.

I found a build your own etching press website. I ordered the plans. I am lucky to have my studio in a machine shop. We will see how it goes with pricing the cost of materials.

I was able to mat and frame two fun gelatin Monotype prints for the Newburyport Art Associations Fall Members Show. I will drop them off tomorrow, and hope that they get into the show.
