From Block to Book: Color Woodcut Printmaking for an Artist Book, with Karen Kunc

This intensive, exciting hands-on workshop goes from printing color reduction woodcut images that become the pages of a hand bound accordion book.  This approach is 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.   The goal is for each participant to create an artist book that generates a multilevel sensory experience.  Concepts for invention and good fun will be directed in a collaborative atmosphere.
