SUMMARY:Spring Break: Cyanotype Drop-In Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us during spring break to learn about cyanotype with artist and educator\, Hannah Babcock! \nThis workshop is free\, open to the public\, and does not require registration. \n  \n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nWorkshop description:\nIn this workshop\, we will learn about using the power of the sun to make images using cyanotype\nprintmaking! We will arrange stencils and use markers on top of transparent plates to create small\ncompositions that will block out UV light and will result in beautiful blue and white prints. \n  \nArtist Bio:\n\nHi! My name is Hannah and I’m an artist and art educator located in Portland\, Maine. I grew up\non the coast of Southern Maine and am so thrilled to be back after completing my Bachelors in\nStudio Art at Carleton College in Northfield\, Minnesota. I’m currently a graduate student and\nteacher candidate at Maine College of Art and Design. My practice is centered around the\nintersections of craft\, labor\, and sensitivity. I work primarily in sculptural installation and both\nwoodcut and intaglio printmaking. Process is so integral to the work I make\, and I hope to\nforeground the importance of process over product for my students.
