Miss Nelson’s class is the worst-behaved in the whole school. Spitballs flying across the room, paper airplanes sailing every which way and uncontrollable children send gentle, long-suffering Miss Nelson over the edge.
But the students of Room 207 are in for a surprise when Miss Nelson goes missing and is replaced by Viola Swamp, a no-nonsense substitute who assigns piles of homework! The students learn lessons of appreciation and respect as they set out to find their beloved Miss Nelson… but will they ever get her back?
Zinc plate lithography is one of printmaking’s most expressive processes, often described as the printmaker’s equivalent of drawing and painting. Artists work directly on a smooth metal plate using greasy drawing materials such as lithographic crayon, pencil and liquid tusche, creating marks that range from delicate lines and soft washes to rich, velvety blacks.
Over four weeks, students will learn how to prepare a zinc plate, draw on it using traditional lithographic materials, chemically process the plate and print a small edition using the Takach Lithography press. The process works through the interaction of grease and water: greasy marks attract ink while damp areas of the plate repel it. This class welcomes artists of all levels. Beginners will receive clear, step-by-step guidance, while more experienced artists and printmakers will have the opportunity to explore lithographic mark-making and deepen their understanding of the process.
