The Art of Printmaking: Monoprints
With Artist Andrea Cote
June 14, 11 am - 2 pm
An event every week that begins at 11 am on Friday, repeating until June 28, 2024
$270 | All materials included
Inspired by The Art of Food: From the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and His Family Foundation, explore variations of monoprint printmaking and the fundamentals of line, shape, and the power of contrast combining hard and soft edges.
Students will be introduced to reductive monotype and drypoint, a linear technique of drawing directly on a surface with an etching needle. We will layer forms from cut mylar stencils and work with translucency. This allows for freedom with variations of color and compositional elements. Students can create a small Varied Edition of prints on the Parrish printing press. Open to all levels.
About the Artist
Andrea Cote is an interdisciplinary artist and printmaker. She has been creating professionally and teaching for over 25 years. Based in Hampton Bays, she has exhibited her work in North and South America at venues including Guild Hall Islip Art Museum, Delaware Art Museum, Abrons Arts Center, The Print Center, The Moore Gallery, and PanAmerican Art Projects. She is the recipient of several grants including NYSCA Creative Individuals Grants in 2014 and 2018, two SOS grants from the New York Foundation for the Arts and a fellowship at the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop. She received a NYSCA Artist Support Grant with the Patchogue Arts Council for a community art project and a residency at The Church in Sag Harbor in 2023. She will be featured in the Parrish Art Museum Road Show in 2024.
A gift of a 19th Century cast-iron printing press in 2016 sparked a focus on printmaking in her studio practice and marked the beginning of Starwheel Press & Projects, and a place for collaborations, special projects, and workshops in the studio.
As a teaching artist, she aims to inspire students to develop their own voice through experimentation while providing a foundation of technique and artistic vocabulary. She aims to make printmaking accessible to everyone, at all levels, on the East End.
