Relief Printmaking with Maggie

Today we learned how to create relief prints.  Maggie the artist shared different pictures of birds that you would find around Vancouver.  The students were invited to notice the texture, composition, size and shape of these birds.  Then the students chose a bird to draw onto their styrofoam plate.  The styrofoam plates with the relief design were rolled with ink and paper was pressed on top.  Now each student has 2 or 3 prints of their unique bird.
