MAY 23 - BRONWYN MERRITT - EASY-TO-CUT PRINTMAKING
DESCRIPTION:
We will be making card-sized prints on different types of paper, exploring techniques for cutting the foam blocks, layering inks and using stencils to create patterns as well. We will be doing a lot of printing, so everyone should leave with several finished prints and all the knowledge needed to make more at home. This type of printing is versatile and inexpensive, requiring very few tools or special skills.
Date: May 23
Time: 10:00AM– 1:00PM
What supplies students need to bring? If you have simple line drawings 5″X7″ or smaller, that you would like to try to reproduce in print form, bring those. Also Any inspirational images, patterns or photos that you think will help you make some good images may be brought (and I will provide some as well).
TEACHER:
