Screen Printing with Glass

4 Oct

Instructor: Inez Garcia

Saturday, October 29, Demonstration 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. 

Here we combine two unlikely mediums to show you how to screen print on top of glass with enamels. Some simple modifications to the printing process allow us to dip our toes into the medium of glass. I’ll go over basics for firing and the material qualities of glass. This opens all sorts of possibilities for printmakers to create layered depth and take advantage of glass’ transparent and sometimes atmospheric qualities. 

Together with Stefanie Dykes at Saltgrass Printmakers, we will demonstrate the screen-printing process, talk about materials, and answer questions about fusing the enamels.

Demonstration fee: $25.00 (suggested donation)

Email Stefanie Dykes to RSVP (not required but it would be nice to know how many were coming)

Inez Garcia earned a B.F.A. degree from Alfred University SOAD with a concentration in glass. She teamed up with Stefanie Dykes from Saltgrass Printmaking to transfer her knowledge of glass to printmaking.

Natural History meets Personal History – Creative Aging

Workshop Location: Saltgrass Printmakers, 412 South 700 West, #110, Salt Lake City, Utah 84104  

Class Description: Natural History meets Personal History – a six week course exploring collagraph printmaking

Collagraph prints can be created from materials found in your kitchen junk drawer, hardware store or during a walk in your neighborhood. Students in this course will use various techniques to build up textured surfaces with common materials. We will be exploring form, texture and composition as well as developing a conceptual approach to our prints. Stefanie Dykes will introduce the idea of ‘Lifecores’ as a self-reflective process that will help us diagram our lived experience or personal landscapes. We will translate our collected ‘data’ to create the collagraph prints. This approach is a kind of quasi-scientific method to creating an image. This process is inventive and inspiring! The workshop is geared for beginning students, but experienced artists can join us as well. 

Workshop is limited to eight participants.

Dates and Location: This six-week course will meet Saturdays at Saltgrass Printmakers, 412 South 700 West, #110, Salt Lake City Utah, 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm.
