Prints on wood



An artist that I have always admired is Jane DesRosier. She has a class tutorial for $10(!!!worth so much more than that) about the process of adhering prints successfully to wood. There are several steps and I ordered exactly what she suggested. They look wonderful after you get it on and it's really fun. You probably wouldn't know that it was a print unless specified. So I have been working with a few prints with some birch wood that I have here at the studio and I decided to list a few.

I got my master's degree at Converse in 1995; an excellent school! :-)
Now, I live in between the triangle of Sptbg & Columbia & Greenville.

I don't think she offers this class anymore. I checked her website and just couldn't find it anywhere. :(
