GUM PRINTING @ RBPMW WITH MINNA RESNICK

Minna Resnick, "Are They", Mixed media and drawing, 2002Gum Printing with Minna Resnick is coming to RBPMW this Fall!
Also known as paper plate lithography, gum printing is a method of inking up an image directly from a photocopy (or laser print) and transferring it to paper. The process is similar to lithography with your photocopy becoming your printing plate. This is a relatively easy, quick, and fun method to get images - both simple and complex - onto good paper. 
 
Artist, printer, and instructor, Minna Resnick, will be introducing the process during her Artist Talk at RBPMW this month and teaching a Gum Printing Workshop in October. Spaces fill up fast, register for the class soon and save the date for her artist talk.
