Week 1 Recap - Monday we discussed the syllabus and watched a video as well as looked at some of the various printmaking media. Wednesday after a brief run through of gouges and the tools of relief print creation we looked at successful student projects in the medium. Finally students were asked to create a practice print using an already carved plate. Next week we will discuss how to sign and matte a print and students should begin carving and printing their own plate based on the Revalucion/Dia de los Muertos theme. Demonstrations will be given for printing again and carving.
