The emphasis is on the fun, and surprising results that occur when one prints on a press, one print at a time. The first class begins with a quick demo, then on to each person doing some prints. The second class the students learn about "double drop", putting the first print through the press a second time. And the third meeting the students will explore "chine colle"; a kind of collage+print combination.
Instructor uses oil paints as ink, but students may prefer to bring their own. Large sheets of Rives BFK for sale ($3.79 per sheet) which is the best paper for this process. Bring rubber gloves for cleanup, and a roll of paper towels.
