Pasta Machine Printing with Bettina Pauly (Online)

Schedule:  Jun 22 & 29, 2021 — 6pm - 8pm (ET); 
5pm - 7pm (CT); 4pm - 6pm (MT); 3pm - 5pm (PT);

Learn how to turn your pasta machine into a printing press in this two-session workshop! In Session One, students will see their pasta machine in a brand new light as instructor Bettina Pauly demonstrates various ways to create and pull prints off the pasta machine press. Between sessions students are asked to experiment at home and the second session is meant to trouble shoot printing issues, show off prints, and discuss how to incorporate these prints into your artists' books.

Session One will be informational, with demonstrations and Q&A. Have your pasta machine printing press ready to go for a dry run during this first session, so you'll get a feel for the process. Between sessions you'll experiment at home and come to the second session with questions; while you print in Session Two, we will trouble shoot any problems and discuss how the prints could be incorporated into your artists' books. And everyone will show off their prints in then, too, of course!
