Basic Printmaking

Childs Elementary School - Grade 5


Students worked with the dragonfly theme.  Balance and symmetry were the focus of the drawing lesson.  The drawing was then transferred to a styrofoam card with a pencil.  The outcome was a relief plate that could be inked and printed.  Students learned the correct terms for brayer, plate, press, and printers ink.
