Pochoir Stencils (French
Stencil technique) Intergenerational
Pochoir stencils may
find their way as book images, decorative paper designs, scrapbooking and/or greeting cards. A
terrific alternative to screen printing and a great way to utilize some less expensive pastels. Simplified images and designs work best as you learn the basics. This is appropriate for an adult
and child intergenerational experience. Adults may choose to cut individual designs, (a good cutting matt
and x-acto knife will be necessary) or along with younger participants,
may utilize pre-cut designs provided. Minimal supply list. 3 -

Eco Printing
What better place to be inspired to do Eco Printing than surrounded by nature
here at Whispering Woodlands. It is a process I can fully relate to, needing to apply patience waiting for the magic to happen,
and looking forward to the surprises that delight when untying the bundles. It really is hard to beat nature's ability
to create beauty simply. The suttle nature of the prints speaks volumns. It requires a little chemistry, bundling leaves, a
slow cooking and time. I am still experimenting myself, and alittle reluctant to commit to the time it may take, but
let me know if you're interested in joining in this adventure for a few afternoons. Two 3 hour sessions
