Discover the art of reduction printmaking in this hands-on workshop with Ouida Touchon! Using softcut blocks and high-quality archival inks, you’ll learn how to carve and print a layered edition using the reduction technique. Choose from four beautiful floral designs as your inspiration, then print with simple hand tools—spoons, barens, or the Woodzilla hand press.
All materials included. Carving experience is helpful but not required. Walk-ins welcome if not exceeding max. of 6 students.
Please note: If class is full and the waitlist is large enough, we’ll be offering an additional session on Sunday, October 26.
About Ouida Touchon:
Ouida is an artist and printmaker living in Delta, Colorado. Her work explores two passions: socially conscious narratives about bold women—mythical or from the American West—and the beauty of observed life, interpreted through a graphic, image-making lens. More than a printmaker or painter, she strives to create work that is remarkable and visually engaging.
Ouida enjoys teaching printmaking and painting at colleges and community workshops, sharing her expertise in techniques ranging from woodcut and reduction printing to chine collé and monoprinting. She works from her well-lit studio in a turn-of-the-century bungalow, where she also cultivates a garden and creative space.
Her work has been exhibited nationally and is represented by Mixx Atelier (Telluride, CO), Artful Home (Madison, WI), Tubac Art and Gifts Gallery (Tubac, AZ), Kalisher Art Publishing (Carrboro, NC), and MakeWest Art Publishing (Denver, CO).
