In this sampler, we will make a print using a Tetrapak plate (milk carton) or a piece of paperboard. You will use a stylus to draw into the surface and wherever you draw a line is where the ink will show. This is a really simple and fun process and a great way to get to know printmaking. Paper and ink will be provided. Beginners welcome!

  • Quick introduction to the studio, with examples of prints made using Tetrapak. Demonstration of technique with time for everyone to work.
  • If you have some milk cartons or paperboard (cereal boxes and the like), feel free to bring them in. Otherwise, a sketchbook and pencil would be helpful.

Ren (they/them) is an artist based in Denver, CO. They have a BFA in Fibers and Drawing from Colorado State University in Ft. Collins although they primarily work as a printmaker and potter right now. They think that the best way to learn is to experiment, make mistakes, and gain some knowledge rather than seeking perfection. When not in the studio, Ren likes to ride bikes, pet dogs, learn about science and nature, and try new things.
