Beautiful work and creative discovery during my Woodcut and Monoprint Collage class at Alchemy Art Center. 

I’m teaching a weekend workshop on Woodcut and Collage in June at Alchemy Art Center. We will create quilt-like collages through the exploration of monotype and relief. Sign up at Alchemy Art Center — sliding scale available.

Visit GreenHill Gallery’s Winter Show to see two of my favorite monoprint drawings from this year. Also, two of my huge repeat-pattern woodcuts are on display. The show is also fully virtual this year. Visit GreenHill’s website for more information on pricing and hours.

Collier states about her studio practice, "I work through multiple disciplines including printmaking, drawing, quilting, text, and collage. Through a laborious use of color layering, repeat patterns, and pastoral themes, my work pokes at the barriers held up between craft and capital A, Art." Collier earned her BA from Whittier College in 2006 and an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2009. She currently teaches printmaking, drawing, and interdisciplinary art at Guilford College in Greensboro, North Carolina.

A beautiful month at Alchemy Art Center: color woodcut and relief printmaking workshops. 

Woodcut printmaking offers a broad range of expressive possibilities, from abstract and pattern-like to intricately carved and narrative. Combined with collage, participants will explore the freedom and potential of both media. This course will offer printmakers tools for creating large collage artworks out of small and deconstructed woodcut prints. Traditional woodcut processes such as hand-drawn design and carving will be combined with advanced techniques for creating fabric-like collages. Artist Katy Collier will guide you through her process and introduce you to some multi-block printing, relief monotype, and acid-free collage techniques.

Looking forward to teaching Relief Printmaking in Color, Custom Stamp-making and Printing, and Woodblock Printing on Fabric at Alchemy Art Center on San Juan Island this summer. Come make prints with me!

Very excited to spend June in Washington state making prints and teaching workshops in color monoprint and multiblock woodcut at Alchemy Art Center. Come hang with me in the beautiful San Juan Islands!
