on weds. nights I teach an adult printmaking class at the AGO - it runs for 10 weeks and it's an intro to several printing techniques - I keep forgetting to take pictures - I finally had my camera with me. This process is similar to etching (dry point - we don't use any acid)- they scratch into the plexi-glass to create a line drawing and the coloured bit is done using washi paper (called chine-collé). The class is a lot of fun - will try to take more photos - there are only three weeks left.
