The artist carves their composition on a reusable plate (or block)\, then prints the images by adding ink to the plate and pressing it against paper. In this project we’re using simple methods to create printing plates out of Styrofoam. We’ll carve grooves into our printing plate using safe objects (pencil or pen!) and use washable markers as our “ink.” \nWax Paper Monoprints with Zandra Zieman-Foster\nMono printing is a print making process that makes one unique print at a time. There is no stamp or printing plate that allows you to make multiples. One is all you get. They are simple and fun. Basically\, painting with acrylic paint onto wax paper. Then you flip over the wax paper onto your art paper (watercolor\, newsprint\, cardboard\, anything…) and rub it with your hand or a brayer. \nAbstract Prints with Turner Black\n‘Found Object Printing’ loosely falls into the bracket of Collagraph. A collagraph is a simple and very effective form of printmaking that is created by using various types of collage as the plate that you then take a print from. Create works of art using a variety of shapes\, found objects and stamps using your choices of color\, repetition\, placement and more to create your own abstract work of art. \nThe Press at CC \nMake Your Own Letterpress Print with The Press at CC\nSet and print a word or short phrase of your choice using antique wood type and a tabletop printing press. \nLadyfingers Letterpress and CC Mobile Arts\nBring your own T-shirt\, fabric tote\, sweatshirt\, or surface you might want to screen print on with Ladyfingers Letterpress and CC Mobile Arts! Some T-shirts\, bags\, and other items will be available for purchase\, and free paper will be provided. \nEvent Partners: FAC’s Bemis School of Art | Ladyfingers Letterpress | The Press at CC | CC Mobile Arts\nImage by Arley Torsone\, Ladyfingers
