Continuing her series of gel plate printing workshops*, Karen Doyle will teach students how to print with botanicals such as leaves, flowers, and grasses. She will discuss what inspires her, share examples, and demo different ways to print using fresh garden cuttings. She will explain “registration” in printing and show you how to align your paper to capture details in layered prints. Karen will bring a variety of fresh plants from the garden. You are also welcome to bring your own to use and share! Come have fun, print, and make friends.
