Funded Sep 2, 2023Our elementary art class has been buzzing with excitement since we introduced our new printmaking project. With the help of the new resources, we embarked on an exploration of printmaking techniques that didn't rely on traditional drawing skills. One particular project that captivated our students involved linoleum block printing. Guided by their imagination, they experimented with layering colors to create vibrant prints. It's been incredibly rewarding to see them embrace this new medium and witness their confidence grow as they produce stunning prints.
Building on the foundation laid by our initial exploration of block printing, the next steps for my students involve diving deeper into the world of printmaking while also exploring new techniques. We're planning to introduce them to the art of monoprinting, where each print is unique and created through a combination of painting, drawing, and printmaking techniques. This project will allow them to further develop their skills while encouraging experimentation and creative expression. We're incredibly grateful for the support that has allowed us to embark on this artistic journey, and we're excited to see where it takes us next.”
