with Bridget Benton: Igniting Your Creative Spark

Printing With Junk

This is printmaking at its purest - we're not making editions: each print is one-of-a-kind, and the prints can be cut up and combined to make wonderful collages!

Printing With Junk

One night class
Cost $45, includes all materials
 

Some of the greatest artists in history have made art with printmaking, but it doesn’t have to be hard, complicated, or expensive!  In fact, you can make prints with lots of things you probably already have lying around the house: bubble wrap, plastic bags, rug grippers, styrofoam, friendly foam, plastic tub lids, string, and foam insulation – just for starters! Learn to make custom print blocks, use heat moldable foam and style free-form monoprints, then build up layers of impressions to make beautiful images and fancy paper for your collages, journals, and more. To make things even better, in addition to working with a lot of recycled materials, we'll also be using water soluble inks! 

All materials are provided, but feel free to bring things that you think might make interesting impress in foam.  Also, feel free to bring any extra bubble wrap, plastic bags, or styrofoam you  may have laying around!
