Winter Art classes start January 27 and are now enrolling! Details are all on the classes page.
Had all the students making collagraph prints, this time self portraits.
Our collagraph plates were made out of matt board. Students used heavy paper (70lb) collaged in layers to create their portraits. A final coat of matte medium was applied to seal it all in place.
Printmaking is about the process as much as the end result.
Students print an edition of original prints. These are not reproduction, posters or fine art prints which is a fancy name for a high quality mechanically reproduced image. These are original prints.
