- Chokusetsu-ho Gyotaku
An Introduction to Japanese Fish Printing
with Stephen DiCerbo
(NPS Member)
Level: Beginner
Prerequisites: none
Maximum class enrollment: 10
at The Evergreen State College, Olympia, Washington
Friday, July 15 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM
Learn Chokusetsu-ho, the direct method of Gyotaku, Japanese fish
printing. A relatively new art form, Gyotaku came to America in the
1950s and its history can be traced back a couple hundred years.
Used to identify species of fish and record size of catches, gyotaku
is often seen as a parallel to Taxidermy. It has evolved into an art
form and unique type of illustration, and techniques and methodology
continue to be refined today. A form of relief printmaking, it
allows for an intimate familiarity with the morphology of the
fish.
All materials provided, but bring any preferred brushes for working
with ink washes. $20 Materials fee.
Cost of workshop is $100 with a $20 materials Fee, no membership
required.

- Botanical Printing on Textiles:
A 2-day Workshop

20 Washington Place
Providence, RI 02903-2787
telephone: 401 454-6200

Dates; Saturday/Sunday 30 -31 Jan
2010
Time: 10am-4pm
Class code: 2010/CW-TEXT-0132-01
The technique of botanical printing allows us to capture the
structural and textural wonders of the natural world and to transfer
them directly onto textiles. Botanical prints record the physical
appearance of a plant specimen by "inking" the actual
surface and then imprinting it on fabrics.
Class begins with an introduction
to nature printing techniques, using acid and fiber-reactive dyes
and methods of fixation. Fabric choices, ranging from plain silks to
linen damask, composition and pattern are also covered. Students
print many samples which may be incorporated into beautiful art
pieces.
Tuition [Non Credit] and Lab Fee:
