Pressless Prints at Ox Bow

In this workshop, participants will design and create original images using hand-carved and found-object stamps, producing a series of layered prints on paper to take home. Demonstrations will cover basic stamp carving, inking techniques, pattern building, registration, and creative mark-making without the use of a printing press. The class will flow from experimental warm-ups to guided projects and open exploration, allowing time for iteration, collaboration, and individual image development.

Plan to bring: any personal imagery, sketches, or objects you’d like to incorporate into your printing.
