Cost of each day is £35 which includes all refreshments other than savoury part of your lunch.

Note we start the day with wet pasting then move onto a dry method then finish off pasted work at the end of the day. We have found in half day ( 3hrs) things are not always dry enough to finish off as we want to.

If you opt for the whole course you will get a folder and 10% discount on your stencils which will last from one day until the next day of the course – usually 2 months later unless course members wish to meet monthly.

 

 

NOTE although it is best to do the whole course for a comprehensive study of what we can do with our stencils you can dip in and out and do whichever days you feel you need.

 

NORMAL workshops on stencils and masks will continue to be in each workshop programme and will cover different methods each time along with specific stencils we are working with. if you just wish to try doing a bit at a time.

 

 

 

 

 

Stencil course General Introduction

Each session will start with using the wet paste*, initially for items we will work with later but then those where we work with the wet paste.

While these are drying we will do methods that don’t involve wet paste.

We will then finish the dried paste cards where appropriate.

After this we will look at the stencils you have (or others of mine) and decide what will work well with the techniques covered. We will also consider which techniques are suitable for use with plastic stencils/masks

To finish off – items will either go into your folder** with added notes or made into cards.

*each session will use a different type of paste to help with building up your supplies and limiting costs

**it is useful to have samples to look back on to remind you what each technique looks like.

• Everyone starting the course will be given a box file to keep their bits in and a folder for notes (given) and examples.
• You will need to sort out your equipment from the list provided for each session. If you don’t have it then it maybe included in the extended package*** or if you have to buy it remember you get 10% off on workshop day.
• extended package – for an additional £10**** you will get equipment &/or materials up to the value £14.

 (**** or 30% off items if comes to a lot more than £14 or you show that you have already got these items)

• 10% discount on STENCILS ONLY will be available for 2months after each session ( so basically up to the next session  date)
• Workshop sessions to complete course will run roughly every 2 months (unless participants want to be more regular) for a full day. Dates to be decided by course participants. Although 4 sessions have initially been mentioned my plan goes to 5 sessions unless we have time to include some of these techniques earlier - it’s never-ending really so could continue beyond those planned if desired.
• It is best to do the full course but there is the option of dipping in and out if needs be.
