In this one day workshop we will utilize the packaging material Tetra Pak to make unique shaped prints. Often used to package soups, stocks and other shelf stable liquids, Tetra Pak also makes an eco and budget friendly printing plate. After an introduction to the technique with printed samples and demo plates, students will receive material and create their own plates. We’ll use the second part of the day to explore inking and printing these plates on a traditional etching press. Open to artists of all levels, repeat students welcome. Instructor will provide the recycled Tetra Pak materials. Ink and tools will be supplied but printmaking paper (explained at the start of workshop) will need to be purchased from Pullen Arts, approximately $15-20. 1 session.
