Instructor: Tony Bounsall The course introduces students to expressive ways to use material and processes in printmaking. The focus will be on various collagraphic techniques, with students learning how to develop a multi-levelled textured surface that can be enhanced or augmented with other media. Blind embossing and chinne colle will also be examined.  Course will include hands-on demonstrations and time allocated to work on the press.  This is a great class to complement the Monoprinting class with Tony Bounsall, offered the same day.
