Full Course: Saturday Morning Mono Printing Workshop (all ages & levels welcome)
Saturdays // Oct 24, Oct 31, and Nov 7 // 10 AM-12 PM
This ZOOM workshop is ideal for students who love to draw, paint and/or experiment with mark making. We’ll use rollers and paintbrushes to add color, tissues and Q-tips to lighten areas creating tones and dimension, and found materials to create textures. Students can work from home or make an appointment to use the ZACC Printshop presses.
