2020 Printmaking-5th Grade

Print design drawn out on foamboard with an ink pen

The Fifth grade class is busy printing their fish designs in Art class.  They had to create a design of a fish using shape and pattern.  Their sketch was then transferred onto a foam board with an ink pen.  The next step was to ink the foam with a brayer and printing ink.  After completing that step, they laid a piece of paper on top and rubbed the back of the paper to make sure the all of the design printed.  They pulled their print and laid it on the drying rack to dry.
