Printmaking Workshop


First, John showed us his printmaking and other famous printmaking, and then he told us how he did the printmaking. I like his ones, because he used layers of ink. John used slabs of limestone and then we got to try out the technique on foam. It was creative how it made a nice print on the paper. It was really fun. In many years to come, I think I will still be using his technique. John uses his art to show that birds are becoming extinct and we need to help them.
Thank you to Ms Yelchich for putting the time and effort into organising John's visit.
