April Showers: Printing Peonies with Meryl Engler

Celebrate spring with a hands-on introduction to woodcut printmaking.

Using pre-carved floral woodblocks, participants will learn the basics of inking and hand-printing without a press, then create their own vibrant flower prints to take home. Led by artist Meryl Engler, the workshop includes a brief overview of the carving process and guidance throughout printing. Participants will work with water-based inks and leave with a small collection of their own handmade prints.

Meryl Engler is a printmaker known for her colorful woodcut prints, often using pattern and repetition. She is inspired by hidden landscapes in our environment and the relationships we form to them and to each other. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and is currently on view at Peg’s Gallery in Illuminated Fundamentals.

All events are free and open to the public.
No registration necessary.
