Oct. 26-27 collograph—making a printing plate as you would a collage. Glue textures onto a plexiglass plate using acrylic medium. When the plate is dry you can wipe ink into the plate and wipe it off again so it is held in the lowest parts of the plate. When you run this through the press you get an image with beautiful rich textures. Roll ink over the high points of the plate to create even more color and texture. If there is enough interest it would be fun to do a class that just explored printing the collograph. Once you have a plate you can print it many different ways. Details: classes run from 10:00 to 4:00. The cost is $195 for the two days plus $25 material fees. The fees include everything except extra paper which can be purchaced at cost. The classes are located at the Beall greenhouses at 18531 Beall Rd SW Vashon.
