There will be no recordings made available of this workshop for later viewing.
It is a one-time event, just as if you visited our studio and took the workshop in person.

Recommended materials (feel free, however, to use the materials you are most interested in. These materials are the ones the instructor will be using):

• 2 sheets of Rives BFK Tan Heavyweight printmaking paper; each 22”x30” sheet should be torn or cut into 11”x15” quarters, yielding a total of 8 quarter-sheets

• A drawing board and clips to hold the paper, if needed

• 3 3B pencils (Staedtler is great)

• 3 white Prismacolor pencils

• 1 sharpener (pre-test to make sure it works with Prismacolor pencils, which are more delicate than ordinary pencils - sharpeners with reservoirs are recommended, as white pencils need constant sharpening)

• 1 pentel clic eraser or other rubber eraser (not gum eraser)
