Worldwide Print Day in May - Botanical Printing using Iridescent Bronze with Lee A. Monts

Saturday, May 2, 2026

11:00 – 2:30 (bring a bag lunch)

All skill levels

Class size: minimum of 4; maximum of 12

$110

Worldwide Print Day in May is celebrated each year on the first Saturday in May. Spring leaves will be emerging, and that makes it a good time to print botanicals using the OPEN viscosity of Iridescent Brone (Fine) by Golden Artist Colors. This particular acrylic color does magical things when printing because a beautiful shade of green will separate out and create beautiful prints from a gel plate…especially ghost prints. Using 6” x 6” gel plates and brayers provided by the instructor, participants will learn the basics of printing botanical materials and learn how to print a “ghost within the mask”. Prints can be framed, used for making greeting cards and wrapping paper, or used as collage elements. While the class will focus primarily on printing with Iridescent Bronze, the instructor will provide other colors to experiment with. It is a fun process that yields interesting results. No prior artistic experience is needed.
