Printmaking; Dry Prints

We are learning to use a variety of printmaking techniques and processes to produce original works of art.

We have made our own cardboard printing blocks that we are now using to explore different printmaking techniques. Last week we explored using crayons over our blocks, this week we learnt how to produce Dry Prints.

We folded newsprint paper around our block like an envelope, then we rolled ink over top of the paper. They look great. We look forward to scanning them so we can share them here on the blog. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy having a look at a few photos of us in action.

We must say a huge thank-you to Mr G. who gave up his non-contact time to came team teach with Mrs Forrest, and Mr. Flanagan & Miss Sloan for all their help!
