Theresa Pastoriza-Tan , Thursdays, Oct 13 – Nov 3 , 6:00pm – 8:00pm (In-Person)

Are you crazy about prints like me? Then join me in this print making journey as we play with: color palettes foam printing repeated marks stencils textures & monoprints with “gelli” plate In the first part of this class, we will create a collection of printed papers. The second part of this class will delve into how to use these papers. Some possibilities are: create our own wrapping paper, use as collage in a journal, create a handmade book, create tags/postcards/artist trading cards… You will leave with a treasure trove of printed papers to use in your future projects long after our time together is over.
