Before the holidays fully take over, steal an evening back. No small talk. No obligations. No inbox. Just you, the sound, and the radical act of not responding to anything for a little while. Just sound, stillness, and sixty minutes that belong entirely to you. No experience necessary. Just come as you are.

This class will show you the basic idea behind the Lithography printing process. It relies on resistance of oil and water and you can create prints using items you can easily find or have at home. You will make a simple art print using Aluminum Foil as your base, draw an image with marker, crayons, or colored pencils, and then etch it with Coca Cola, of all things! We will print them on the center's printing presses, but this technique can also be hand printed at home. We will explore adding color to the original black and white prints with watercolor monoprint made on kids "Shrinky Dink" plastic." This is a fun process you can do with easy to obtain items. Bring your old kitchen apron, a sketch idea or 3, and the instructor brings the rest!

Different from traditional western methods of woodblock printing, this Japanese technique is a water-based application. There is no need for solvents as the ink is not oil-based and the range of ink colors is only limited to your access to pigments. Highly portable, all the supplies needed to carve and print a work of art can be packed into a knapsack. Students will learn the techniques of this amazing process while carving and printing their own the practice image. for learning purposes, Students will be introduced to this method by creating a print in the Sumizuri-e style of printing meaning that we will be using sumi ink exclusively. Come learn this incredibly versatile water-based print practice that can be packed into a travel bag, set up on the go, and cleans up with just water.

Spaces are limited and advanced registration is required so reserver your spot through the Shenandoah Valley Art Center website, svacart.com, or through the following link: https://loom.ly/OfMOH0k
