About this Workshop:

Join us as we use simple presses—and in some cases no ink—to communicate using impressions of text on paper. You’ll take away a souvenir of your efforts in blind embossing! No homework and no experience necessary. Just bring yourself and get ready to have some fun.

Level: Beginner – no experience necessary!

Registration closes March 6, 2022 and includes all materials.

YOUR INSTRUCTOR:

Elisabeth Boerwinkel is a printmaker and illustrator from the Netherlands, currently living and working in Washington DC. She was most recently a Keyholder Resident at Pyramid Atlantic for Fall/Winter 2021. Pulling her first prints in 2015 she fell in love with copperplate etching straight away. Later she wandered into a letterpress studio in Amsterdam and got obsessed with wood, metal, and heavy machinery. You can find her in the letterpress studio smelling the ink. Her work can be viewed at @elisabeth_kunegonde on Instagram.
