Printmaking at Art Camp

This week I introduced my afternoon class to an easy method of creating "plates" for printmaking, using tagboard.  In the past, I've had kids use lino-cutters on rubber blocks....much more professional, but no matter how much you stress safety techniques, someone always gets hurt.  Today, they pulled their prints. They really enjoyed the printing process and were thrilled to see the results of their efforts.
