The Structure of Dreams

Posted on Friday, March 14, 2014Thursday, March 13, 2014 by Traci Bunkers | No Comments

I’ve been taking an experimental printmaking class at the Lawrence Arts Center, and here’s one of my latest monoprints that I titled The Structure of Dreams. I’m really happy with how it turned out. I made a collagraph plate by adding modeling paste, a little packing tape, staples and cord to my base. I used […]
