Description

Complete beginners and experienced artists will thrive in this class. Students will learn how to design for relief printing, transfer the design to the block, use various types of ink, and create single prints and repeating patterns on paper and fabric. Paper, cards, flour-sack towels, and drawstring pouches will be provided, but students are encouraged to bring multiple garments and fabrics to print upon. Tips and techniques for collaging paper prints and securing fabric printed patches to garments will be discussed.

Who This Class is For

Complete beginners without any drawing experience will thrive in this class, but artists with experience in other art mediums will benefit from learning this new art form. Students should feel comfortable working with their hands as well as viewing details on the stamp/block (bring your reading glasses!). Sitting and standing, rolling up ink, and applying pressure to the block are required. The ink will stain clothing, so students may want to bring an apron. The blade is sharp, so there is a small chance of injury for students who forget to cut away from their hand/body. This class is appropriate for ages 12 and up.
