Instructor: Lara Henderson
This class offers an unconventional approach to printing on the letterpress. Using a collection of patterned wood blocks, wood and metal type, and low-relief collagraph plates, students will create spontaneous, layered prints. Seasoned printers as well as beginners are encouraged to take this class.
Students will leave with a collection of unique artists’ books, and technical knowledge of the Vandercook Proofing Press.
While this is class offers a basic overview of the letterpress, we suggest that you take Introduction to Letterpress for a deeper and more complete understanding of letterpress printing, including polymer plate making and additional troubleshooting guidance.
