Don't forget! Report cards are due tomorrow, and paintings are due Wednesday. For credit, turn in your written statement; otherwise, you'll receive a big fat zero! This week, focus on collagraph prints using various textures like tissue and Japanese paper, as well as everyday materials such as string, fabric, and rubber bands. Experiment with different techniques, creating four unique blocks—dimensions between 6” and 10”. Each must have amazing compositions, and you'll print each one by hand and using a press. Aim for an edition of 5 and an experimental larger print combining layers and colors.
