Pencil carving at Omanu

Multicoloured print from a poly plate, by a 5 year old.

Ade Beech using the A4 relief press.

Ade Beech spends one hour from John tutored on how to use the A4 relief press from Homeprint. We drew onto polyplate with pencil, 'pencil carving', printed 4 copies in yellow waterbased ink, drew more detail, and overprinted in red. This produced a handsome 2 colour textured print ready to frame. Ade is now on her way back to the Massey University Preschool Centre to convince the buying panel to buy a press!
