Printmaking and a catch up

It’s been a while since I last posted. We have  had a Year 12 ball IMG_6932

Daughter 4 had a birthday party:

The theme was “Crafts” and the elder daughters made a mural which the party goers decorated.

You can see some of my hand printed cloth being used as a table cover!

I have had two printmaking classes. Nothing to show from this week as we were making plates to print from next week . But these are samples of overprinting and ‘ghost ‘prints from last week.
