This workshop is aimed at anyone interested in creating prints without needing a press. The workshop will address classroom strategies for teachers (appropriate for grades 5 to 12). It will cover both simple techniques to the more sophisticated multimedia applications. Participants will be given hands-on experience with many of the techniques covered. The areas and processes that will be covered are relief prints, Plano graphic-lift and monotypes. Students will combine processes and step out of traditions by using various materials, images, registrations and presentations.
