Register now for this special Printmaking Series held in the Keystone Building (Room #237). Students are requested to commit to at least 3 consecutive classes to help the instructor plan and to allow students to fine tune and build upon their projects.
Students will learn how to make their own simple printing tools with upcycled and natural materials. This class will help students learn about patterns in their daily lives. Use of color, including layering of color will be explored. Students will learn about the history of printmaking; how it has evolved and current techniques.
Take chances and create something completely unique; printmaking encourages spontaneous creativity. Students should bring a pencil, notebook, colored pencils and water and a simple snack. Finished projects will include greeting cards and other unique take-home creations. Student work will be on exhibition on the final day of class
