I’m interested. When would this course be offered? How much would it be?
Hi Jane,
I am still working on the last 3 modules including this one. It will probably be next spring (2016) when this one is offered. It will be $45 like all the other modules. It will be announced on this website when the class is being offered.
Ruth
I’m interested in this too.
Thanks for letting me know. I haven’t started on this module yet. These take me quite a bit of work and time to get them finished. Longer than I expected, sorry.
No problem – I do a lot of thermofax printing on felt, so I’m interested in exploring new ideas around printing.
You might be interested in the screen printing class. I have it almost ready so it will be in early 2016. It has a lot of experimental techniques that you might enjoy.
I might just be still around in 2046, but I’m not sure I’ll be taking classes !
Ooops – that was supposed to be 2016.
Has this class been offered yet? If not I would be very interested in taking it.
Hi Cheryl, This is the next class I will be working on. Will announce it here when it’s ready.
