Grades 7 and 8 are currently working on an advanced printmaking technique called Reduction Prints. This is an upper-level project, so they should be very proud about the work they have created! It all starts with these tools: And it ends with this awesomeness: Of course, there are a ton of steps in between which include designing our print, transferring the image onto our printing block, carving it out, printing with one color, carving some more, printing with a second color, carving some more, printing with a third color, and so on. Students came up with some pretty great designs AND, they had to be able to draw them backwards because printing this way creates a mirror image.
They should be proud. I know I am!

If I were back in school, Art Class would definitely be my favorite class! Great projects going on at MV MS!
