Allowing nature's raw beauty inspires unique designs and compositions through the art of
printmaking. Students will find their own materials outside the classroom and create multiple
prints using hand printing. As the week goes on we will transform those prints further by
painting, collaging, or drawing, lots to explore!
Students will use design and composition to arrange the naturally found materials of their
choosing and create aesthetic works of art. Simple printmaking techniques will be discussed
and practiced.
Students should be able to create multiple works of art. And will be encouraged to keep
working and use more materials to create a very unique final product.
If desired students will be demonstrated how to create a stand alone book for their prints.

  • There is a $4 registration fee included in tuition.

    Members will have the $4 fee deducted from the tuition.

    ** Class size is limited to 6 students**

    **Please note that classes at Brookfield Craft Center must meet a minimum number of registrations for the class to run. Students will be notified within a week's notice whether their class will be held.

    This class is held in the Mill Building in the River Room studio which is beneath the Gallery. There will be a set of steps to walk up and down.
