Carving, Printing & Wearable Art 

Potatoes aren’t just for eating and linoleum is not just for flooring! Join us to explore different printmaking techniques and print every day. Carve potatoes and linoleum blocks to create a variety of relief prints on paper and fabric, exploring a multi-step medium where surprises are part of the process. Think about negative space (what is carved away vs. printed), strategically plan, and then go with the flow when an image or idea morphs as it is reversed, carved, and finally printed using various pigments and surfaces. Create cards, posters, tote bags, bandanas and t-shirts. Students will need to responsibly handle sharp carving tools.

If you plan to apply for financial aid for this class, you must complete and submit the financial aid application no later than 2 hours after you register.
