Screen printing – with Jeff Ross
What does one do when they are in the midst of a new cultural phenomenon deemed grunge? Print concert posters and band (Nirvana) t-shirts, of course.
This is how Jeff Ross began his over-30 years of experience in screen printing.
In this workshop Jeff will share his history of painting, printing, collage and street art and teach delegates methods for creating multi-layer prints. Using a limited amount of imagery, participants will be challenged to create cohesive designs for canvas bags that they will design and print for all the members of their school’s delegation.
Copper plate etching – with K. Axe from Pineapple Print Press
