Printmakers Inc, studio 325, is hosting an artist talk with our current solo show artist Samantha Lee Shelton. Sam will discuss her recent body of work. You are invited to learn more about the etching process, invented in the middle ages, and how Sam uses acid to bite into the metal plates, which are then used to make beautiful tonal and textural prints. Refreshments will be served.
