Kluender Art 8

Mrs. Kluender's Art 8 classes are in the process of creating linoleum block prints using a reduction carving process. They began by sending me a selfie!  We used Adobe Photoshop to separate the photo into black, grey and white areas. Students have been working hard to carve out all of the white areas from their linoleum. 

Today was our first block printing day after carving...and I almost squealed with delight when I cleared these gems off of the drying rack! We still have a ways to go, but these prints are going to be AMAZING!!!!!!! I cant wait to share the final product! Stay tuned....
