Family Workshop: Silhouettes and Block-Printed Patterns

Inspired by Letitia Huckaby’s works on view at the Virginia Steele Scott Galleries of American Art, the class will guide participants in creating one-of-a-kind silhouette paintings that combine block-printed patterns and traced shadows. Participants will learn to design and create repeating patterns using simple block-printing techniques that will serve as the backdrop for a silhouette of themselves or a friend, family member, object, or plant made using shadow tracing and paint.
