With light-sensitive coatings onto paper, we will make beautiful blue toned prints when exposed with objects or transparencies blocking the ultraviolet light, leaving a silhouette image that “captures” the moment and the ghost of the object. This is a historic process ready for update. Bring unusual small objects, natural foliage & grasses, nostalgic translucent or transparent memorabilia. Also plan a photo image ahead of time that will be made into a transparency to use for exposures.

Join with guest artist Kathy Caraccio, master printer from New York City, here to celebrate her Quilt Series exhibition at the International Quilt Study Center & Museum. In this exciting workshop we will create monoprints onto interesting papers for colorful rainbow blends, textures and layers. These printed sources will be cut into shapes to arrange into quilt like designs and patterns that create dynamic visual interactions. These one-of-a-kind collages of paper will be glued and mounted for a finished presentation. Printing hints and tips from Kathy’s vast knowledge will enable collaboration throughout the workshop allowing all to learn and discover.
This intensive, exciting workshop will awaken the possibilities for the woodcut printing process for the beginning and advanced printmaker. This approach is not technically tradition-bound…but inventive, with contemporary, creative methods, that can be spontaneous, simple and direct. This expressive medium will be introduced and explored through demonstrations and discussions of cutting techniques, oil-base inks and water-base inks, modifiers, and printing by hand as well as using the press. Participants will go from designing their images and cutting blocks, to printing several projects using a variety of methods and individual discoveries. For all levels.
