Frottage Plant Transfer with Yoshi Nakagawa

$95.00Price

Saturday July 8th 10am-1:30pm with Yoshi Nakagawa

 

Get in touch with the land through printmaking!  In this workshop, we will start with a farm tour and gather plant cuttings to print. Next, we’ll identify their common and botanical names, roll on black oil-based ink on the plants with a brayer, and hand print on Japanese washi paper (fibers made from mulberry) with a spoon.  Then we will watercolor on the print to make the plants come alive.  Fishing by signing and writing the common and botanical names for your plant prints.

 

Be a naturalist artist with no experience necessary!  Participants will make up to 2 final Washi prints.  

 

10am -1:30pm  

Cost including materials is $95.00

 

As part of our commitment to inclusivity and equity we are offering BIPOC scholarships for each workshop.  There is no application- only a desire to attend. Please email jennifer@ wilddreamsfarm.org to claim your spot.
