Shenandoah Valley Art Center presents: Kitchen Lithography Workshop with Joan Menard! This class will show you the basic idea behind the Lithography printing process. It relies on resistance of oil and water and you can create prints using items you can easily find or have at home. You will make a simple art print using aluminum foil as your base, draw an image with marker, crayons, or colored pencils, and then etch it with Coca Cola, of all things! You will print them on the center’s printing presses, but this technique can also be hand printed at home. You will explore adding color to the original black and white prints with watercolor monoprint made on kids “Shrinky Dink” plastic.” Bring your old kitchen apron, a sketch idea or three, and the instructor will bring the rest. Joan Graybeal Menard is a multimedia artist. Having majored in Printmaking and pottery, displaying and selling her work for 40 years, she is now focused on passing on the knowledge of the various printmaking techniques to her students. This class is for both beginner and experienced adult printers. Sunday, August 17, 1:00 – 4:00 p.m., Fee: $50, $10 materials fee due at the beginning of class.
