The Printed Garden - A Botanical Printmaking Retreat
Advertisement
Explore botanical printing using multiple techniques: cyanotype (sun printing) on canvas tote bags, gel plate printmaking, and "hape some" (Japanese flower hammering) floral banners. This 3-part class will be the ultimate celebration of the summer garden! All materials provided, but bring botanicals (leaves and flowers) if you have some you love.
Note: Cyanotype requires the sun. In the event the sun does not shine on August 1st, there will be two back-up activities to ensure participants get a completed tote bag and also get the cyanotype experience: block printing tote bags during class using pre-carved blocks, and making mini cyanotype prints exposed using portable UV lamps.
We will work in two beautiful studios at Art House 360: Slate Blue Studios and Verona Maker Space.
We will take a lunch break from 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm. Choose an optional box lunch when registering or bring lunch. Snacks and drinks provided throughout the day. Refrigerator space is available.
$120 (scholarships available)
