Class Description
now
In this workshop, students will first explore Gelli Plate printmaking using acrylic paints on mixed-media paper. This fun and accessible technique allows for creative experimentation with layering colors to produce unique, one-of-a-kind prints. Second, students will get creative with collage. Combine your new prints with 2-3 items you bring to class: printed poetry, photos, or other keepsakes.
