Explore the versatile technique of collagraphy, a printmaking process in which materials are glued or sealed to a rigid substrate (such as paperboard or wood) to create a plate. Once inked, the plate becomes a tool for imprinting the design onto paper or another medium.
Through hands-on practice and both group and individual guided instruction, participants will discover the potential of collagraph plates to create unique and textured prints that reflect their personal artistic expression.
This class is ideal for artists looking to expand their printmaking skills or explore a new medium.
Includes one 3-hour practice session per week during monitored practice hours.
The tuition for this class includes a materials fee of $20 for basic materials provided by CAW.
