Screen Print a Set of Cards

Erin is a printmaker who loves to experiment with all types of printing - from screen printing and linocut to monoprint and cyanotype. Inspired by graphic art from protest movements and artists like Sister Corita Kent she believes art can be powerful and joyful. She loves to share knowledge and help people create whatever they are dreaming of making. Always a student, Erin can often be found in the screen printing shop or the jewelry shop at A2.
