Students will explore linoleum block carving and printmaking techniques as a way of expressing a unique personality in high contrast. We will use black and white photo portraits as the starting point for our linoleum prints. Once images have been transferred, students will learn carving techniques that utilize negative space to create a design that’s ready to print. We'll get to play with printing on diverse materials and students will leave with several one-of-a-kind prints and a tote bag.
Upon registration, students will be asked to send a high-contrast photo or selfie to be used for the project. Students who don't provide a photo will be provided with images of celebrities, artists, etc. that they can choose from!
