Art for children!

Blue Frog's resident printmaker, Beth Knotts, has done it again with another excellent printmaking class for children.  Three young ladies ages 7-9 participated in a two Saturday workshop at the Blue Frog and produced amazing prints. 

Beth first gave a lesson in drawing and worked with each student to produce several drawings done from reptile models.  She then helped them select their best composition and they transferred the image to a plate.

Students learned about ink consistency, how to use a brayer, and keeping your work surface clean - very important when printing!  They also learned how to number and sign their series of prints. 

You can see from the photos, they were a focused group and produced outstanding framable works of art!

Beth will do another printmaking class for children in June - stop by and pick up a summer schedule.  Or send us an e-mail at debbiskinner@hotmail.com and we'll add you to our class schedule distribution list!
