February 24 Recap

Thanks to all of you for working hard yesterday. Tamara will be firing our first round of tests with custom decals today!

You can find the presentation from class, including links to the Otsuka museum and iron oxide transfer videos, in the handouts section.

A few reminders:

Next week (March 3) we’re going to do some wet work with clay in Studio 8 downtown. This will include screen printing directly to clay slabs and it would also be a great time to try out some unfused photocopier iron oxide transfers. If you are able to make some before class next week, that would be great but it’s not required. We do strongly recommend that you spend some time in open studio at Georgetown this weekend if you can (the studio is open between approximately 12 and 5 both Saturday and Sunday) to continue printing decals if you wish but especially to prepare a screen for our class work on March 3–screenprinting on wet clay:

  • Prepare a screen for screenprinting directly to wet clay (use one of our class screens)
  • Label it with tape: Your Name and “Take Downtown”
  • Tamara and I will bring all the screens marked “Take Downtown” downtown for our class March 3 so you don’t have to wrangle them yourselves. Sound good?

One response to “February 24 Recap

  1. Hey Amanda and Tamara, I was wondering if you could bring my screen over to downtown?? I wasn’t able to make it out to georgetown the other day, and won’t be able to before tomorrow.
