List of Mary's courses and workshops that will take place at Tamar Print Workshop between now and August 2018.
Mary's specialism is traditional etching, but you'll see that she's also running a collagraph and carborundum weekend in March (which has been requested by a number of people curious as to how her own collagraphs are made), and a monoprint workshop in April. A four day colour course follows in June and the annual summer workshop in August.
Where there is no medium stipulated you can work with the technique of your choice.
So come along, discover your potential and develop your skills whether you're a beginner, an intermediate, or very advanced. No matter your level or experience you will feel at home here. You'll find lots of information about Mary and her courses at www.marygillett.co.uk. Feel free to get in touch and ask anything else you need to know.
