Expressive Landscapes with INES GRADOT
Riso Printing Workshop
Join us for a Multi-Colour, Analogue → Digital Riso Session!
Spend your Saturday exploring risography through the lens of printmaker Ines Gradot, known for her richly layered, inky illustrations.
We'll begin the morning crafting analogue compositions using a suite of Ines' favourite markers, papers, and materials. This session introduces participants to her signature mark-making techniques, offering insight into her process of transforming colour and texture into expressive, multi-layered Riso prints.
After lunch, we’ll digitise each participant's unique design by scanning and preparing them for digital colour separation in Adobe. No experience is necessary—we’ll guide you through separating these artwork into four colour channels and further experiment with the infinite ink combinations available to transform these into Riso prints.
Together, we’ll print the artworks in a vibrant colour palette, culminating in a collection of prints inspired by landscapes and abstract composition.
All materials will be provided, and no computers or riso experience required.
You’ll leave with a stack of prints to share, sell, or swap!
Spaces are limited to 8 participants, so book early to secure your spot!
What You’ll Need:
- ✅ A packed lunch
- ✅ An openness to experiment and learn in a group setting
