FALL WORKSHOP

Oct 24-27    "Screen Play: Variations on Stencil Printing"                  
                   Arrowmont School of Arts & Crafts, Gatlinburg, TN 

This fun and fast-paced class will cover a wide array of stencil printing techniques both on and off the silk screen. Participants will design and print imagery, text, and patterns ranging from the improvisational to the intricate. Techniques will include hand-cutting paper stencils, true-to-life texture rubbings, low-tech materials, and even finely-detailed photo emulsion. Students will bring fabrics, paper, and tees on which to print, then plan to take their screens and stencils back home to keep going on their own. All skill levels are welcome.
