INK OPTIONAL: SCREENPRINTING WITH ALTERNATIVE MATERIALS

Saturday, April 22, 2023 — April 29, 2023
Kala Art Institute, Berkeley, Ca

This class will explore what happens when we expand the screen-printing process to include nontraditional printing materials such as charcoal, watercolors, clay, dirt, spices, or graphite. We will discuss how the printing process can be adjusted to accommodate these materials. Explore how this process can become an active part of your art practice in this collaborative class. There will be time to experiment with materials and to create your own screen-printed artwork. Previous screenprinting experience is ideal, but not required..
