The Gallery offered printmaking workshops with Sarah as part of Education Week. The grade 4 students were lucky enough to participate in this wonderful art making experience.
A big thankyou to Tianee Hurst, Giselle Allgood, Kylie Milne, Mila Jamison, and Cassanda Woods for their help on the day. Without the support of parents these opportunities would not be possible.
Also from the Artroom (the NEW Artroom) a big thankyou to Sally Hamilton and Leanne and Ian McCready for their assistance with moving the artroom. This was (and still is) an incredibly large task, so we are very grateful for the extra pairs of hands (and minds).

Here's the plate (inked with a quick wipe) that I'm working on today. Exposed in the Nuarc for 9 units. It seems just a little underexposed so I'm going to increase exposure on the next plate by a unit or two. Back to work...

I'm reprinting the new plates this week in Charbonnel raw sepia on Fabriano Rosaspina. These are going uptown this week to a gallery in Taos. I got 8 plates printed over the weekend and have two more, plus two new plates to burn.
Whew! I'm pooped....
Using matte board and plexiglass as the base matrix, students constructed sculptural relief plates with textiles, tapes, mystery treasures, and carborundum grits. This class covered basic inking and wiping techniques for both relief and intaglio plates, and successive printing with multiple plates.
this might be my favorite shot of the move. i don't know how often you get to see a ton of metal safely this high in the air.
Using the Usborne Art Treasury book. Read about an artist, a piece of work that he did, and then the girls each did an art project based on the artist's work.
This is based on a sea print done by Hokusai in Japan. The girls used a pencil to make wave designs on a piece of foam. They spread paint over the foam and pressed it onto a piece of paper.
They tried several times and saw the result of too little paint, too much paint, the right amount of paint, too much/little pressure, etc.
It was an interesting lesson for them about printmaking.
