Karin Smith is offering Printmaking 101 which will allow you to try out different printmaking techniques. They are all techniques you can do at home without expensive equipment. Printmaking is a very satisfying art technique. You can do one or all of the workshops.
Linoprint – everybody did this at school! It is a very graphic medium which allows for very sophisticated or very simple prints. We will be printing in black and white.
Tetrapak Printing – Using the inside of orange juice containers we will create an image by cutting into the surface, pressing ink onto it and then squeezing it onto the paper using a pasta maker. This is etching for the modern times.
Kitchen lithography – This one is amazing! We draw onto alfoil with a crayon then soak it in Coca Cola. When we roll the ink on to the alfoil it only appears where the drawing was done. We then print that onto paper.
