Volumetric Image Transfer
with Forrest Lesch-Middelton
$650
Skill Level: Intermediate To Advanced
This workshop explores a technique called "volumetric image transfer." We'll start with wheel-throwing and tile demos, then move on to creating silkscreens with your own designs. By the end of day one, you'll have your own silkscreen and understand how to set up a low-tech darkroom. We'll also explore form and function, and you'll gain a deeper understanding of wheel throwing and design principles. There's plenty of time to develop your work and incorporate image transfer into your studio practice.
