Photopolymer plates are light sensitized steel-backed polymer material used by artists as an alternative to hazardous printing techniques. It is a simple, safe and fast approach to creating plates similar to traditional etching and relief printing.

Saturday, May 12th  Each participant will become familiar with how to expose, develop and print photopolymer plates. We will experiment with different approaches to making the artwork by creating hand drawn imagery and using photographic methods.

On the first day, we will focus on creating drawings for our transparencies. We will provide liquid opaque paint or ink, Rubylith films, lithographic crayons and certain opaque graphite pencils for you to experiment with.  Our images will be created on transparent frosted mylar. This “transparency” is used as a contact positive or negative for either intaglio or relief.

You will become familiar with exposing, developing and printing your photopolymer plate.

At the end of the day, we will introduce a few digital basics to help create the film positive for photographic imagery.  If you don’t have Photoshop, we can work together to make the necessary adjustments to your photo and your print film positive at Saltgrass.

Sunday, May 13th  We will be focused on using the double exposure technique to created either your drawn or photographic images and printing the photopolymer plates individually and collaboratively.
