During the 2021-2022 academic year I had the pleasure of teaching ceramics, painting, and printmaking to students (ages 5-15) at the Linden Community Center here in Columbus, OH. Below is their work throughout these classes!
I really try to encourage my students to experiment and follow their own artistic desires, while I teach them the techniques they can use to achieve what they want. These kids are able to use the studio space to express themselves and have a break from their day-to-day lives and so I really value their wants and encourage them to use the space as they see fit and express themselves.
DIY Screenprinting
For this assignment, we used emboridery hoops, screen filler, and their designs to make an inexpensive and accesible screen print, they printed on shirts and paper.
Rubber Block Prints
For this assignment students learned the basic principles of relief printmaking and created their own designs to print onto postcards.
Cyanotype
Students used found objects such as plants, buttons, ribbons, etc. to create cyanotype exposures or sun prints.
Veggie Prints
Students used a cabbage, potatoes, and lemons to create their own abstract veggie prints.
