Ink & Imprint: Intro to Hand-Drawn Photolithography with Kath Yarkosky
Saturday, December 2nd, 11am-3pm
Members: $110, Non-Members: $125, Materials: $50
During this one-day course, we will cover the fundamentals of photolithography, which is a process that imitates commercial printing and is recognized for its precision. Students will start by learning how to create hand-drawn positive films, which we will then expose onto a photosensitive plate. Together we will process the plates and work together to print them on an etching press, where students will also learn the proper sponging and inking techniques. Students will walk away with a small edition of prints, along with a new printmaking technique to add to their personal repertoire.
