Art at RMS

A new center has opened this week in my choice classroom. Printmaking has replaced the Puppet Center. (puppet makers still have all the same materials available, but will have to look in the “Construction Center” and the “Fabrics and Fibers Center”). Younger classes have been introduced to monotype, printing with the edges of card board shapes (stamping), found object printing and collagraph techniques. Older classes were shown relief printing as well as collagraph, monotype and stamping. I plan to demonstrate intaglio printing to older classes next week, and will surprise them with a small printing press that I happen to have stored in my basement.
