We will go over: relief printing, gelli printing, monoprinting, natural dye printing, and DIY screenprinting.
What You Will Learn:
1. Methods of creating a limited run or series of art prints.
2. Forms of visual color mixing by overly transparencies.

I began my creative career working with leather under the brand CUSP by Cassie for many years before moving my sights into embroidery and embellishing. I now am continuing with the trend of fiber work while incorporating fired clay and mixing mediums into my practice. I am currently building a new collection to show in galleries, instructing classes through The Craft Coven, Fleisher Art Memorial, and Black Hound Clay Studio, and facilitating learning opportunities with visiting artists and instructors.
