Attention West Coast visual artists! There are only four days left to apply for @biginkprints large-scale woodblock printing event at @whit_print in Eugene, Oregon. Submit a proposal by the end of the day on May 14th at www.bigink.org/apply. ~~~~~~~ The Whiteaker Printmakers studio resides in the Cox Cannery in Eugene's eclectic Whiteaker neighborhood. With a ground floor main studio and an upstairs annex, it combines to provide 2400 square feet of workspace with facilities that accommodate a variety of printmaking techniques such as etching, woodcut, monotype, collagraph, screenprint, and letterpress. ~~~~~~~ BIG INK events are a constructive way to collaborate in a creatively inspiring space while gaining an in-depth knowledge of how to create a large-scale woodblock print. The program is designed for printmakers who understand basic woodblock principles but want to expand their expertise and working scale. The program is also designed for those not yet trained in woodblock but whose visual aesthetic would lend itself to the medium. This includes illustrators, sculptors, designers, and painters who use bold contrast, strong outlines and patterning. Artists often describe how participating in an event inspires them to produce more print work in their future studio practice. ~~~~~~~ #oregonartist #oregonprintmaker #whiteakerprintmakers #oregonart #oregoncallforart (at Whiteaker Printmakers)
