Kathy Skaggs Workshop (9AM-3PM)
Discover how to print on clay using AMACO Printing Inks. This workshop will feature demonstrations and discussions covering a range of printing techniques suitable for both handbuilt and wheel-thrown forms.
We will use a variety of silk screening methods—from simple HTV vinyl silkscreens to more complex designs using light-sensitive emulsion sheets, ideal for incorporating photographic imagery. We'll explore both direct silkscreening onto clay and indirect methods using newspaper transfers.
After printing, you'll learn how to construct ceramic forms from the freshly printed, moist slabs.
