Take your Riso skills to the next level in this 2-day deep dive into multi-layer Risograph printing at Silly Gooze Editions. Perfect for those who’ve done our Riso 101 or already have some experience with Riso, this workshop focuses on designing, preparing, and printing complex multi-colour, multi-layered, and textured artworks.
You’ll explore how colour layering, transparency, and registration can be used to create bold, expressive images with texture and depth. We’ll experiment with mark-making, halftones, scanned textures, and analogue/digital hybrids. You’ll plan a layered print from start to finish, prep your artwork for separation, and leave with a vibrant edition of your final piece.
If you plan to incorporate digital elements, please bring your own laptop, tablet, iPad, or preferred hardware to work from. We’ll have scanners and guidance available, but you’ll need your own device for digital editing.
You’ll leave with:
🪿 A set of multi-layered A3 Risograph prints (editioned, signed, and ready to show off)
🪿 Skills in layering, registration, colour blending, and creative problem-solving
🪿 Confidence to approach more advanced Riso projects on your own
Includes all printing materials, full access to the Riso studio, and snacks to keep you going.
Not suitable for total beginners – this workshop is best for those who’ve done Riso 101 or have equivalent experience.
Both days are 11am til 4pm. Bring your own lunch!
