This class will teach Citra Solv print transfer technique to create unique pieces that encourage experimentation and creativity. Students will have the option to use found images (either digital to be printed or magazine/newspaper clippings) and/or their own digital images to be printed and transferred. Students can either create a digital collage and transfer the completed image onto the paper, or can use smaller images/clippings to create the collage in real time on the paper. Each method will create a unique print that relates to the students’ chosen project theme.This technique is fundamentally imperfect and unpredictable, encouraging exploration over perfection.

All materials provided. Open to all skill levels.

Parking: Please park on either Iwo Jima Lane or Cedar Street. Parking that is located in front of the Neighborhood Print Studio are for residents living in the Pajama Factory.

Students will be introduced to various methods of screen printing, including monoprint silkscreen, printing without the use of emulsion, and designing a print completely analogue. This course is intended as an introduction to rudimentary screen print, and focuses on play and experimentation over mastery. Each of the three classes will focus on a new technique, and participants will be encouraged to collaborate, take risks and try new things as a way to utilize screen print as a method to explore shape and color, rather than realizing figurative preplanned prints. This course is for anyone, and is particularly good for someone who wants to print and is looking for new ways to explore and play with the media. All prints will be done on paper.

All materials are provided.

Parking: Please park on either Iwo Jima Lane or Cedar Street. Parking that is located in front of the Neighborhood Print Studio are for residents living in the Pajama Factory.
