Intuitive Printmaking

This five-week course encourages a mindful, intuitive, inner exploration in the creation of printed artworks. Through the use of monoprint and monotype printmaking techniques, students will be guided through the process of intuitive art making. Rather than focusing on specific representation of the outer world, they will open to the process of mindful doodling, where rhythmic and compositional improvisation is explored, and purely decorative abstraction embraced. As students learn to quiet the mind and allow the subconscious to become conscious, they will enjoy the process of creating art from the inside out. All experience levels are welcome! All materials will be provided. Best practices will be covered as students are introduced to working in the shared space of the JAC Printmaking Studio.

Students will be responsible for a $25 materials fee, payable at the front desk the first day of class. Unlimited access to the Printmaking Studio during Open Studio Hours is included for the duration of the session. This class does not include instruction in screen printing, please see Intro to Screen Printing on Thursday afternoons for screen printing instruction.

Scholarships available! Please contact melinda@jamestownartcenter.org for more information.
