In this multimedia class, we will create layered imagery while learning the basics of watercolor, acrylics, and screen printing. Our first class will cover abstract painting, creating colorful washes, shapes, and textures to serve as the background of our prints. In our second class, we will create line drawings to expose onto a screen. The last two classes will cover the screen printing process, experimenting with layering your printed line drawing printed on top of your painted abstract backgrounds culminating in a unique, surprising, and varied edition of prints.

Stempniewicz, Casha

Casha Stempniewicz is an artist and educator based in RVA. They graduated from VCUarts in 2017 with a double BFA in Art Education and Painting + Printmaking. Their studio art practice resides in the blended world of drawing, painting, printmaking, and collage. Casha believes making art is an essential human experience. As a teacher, Casha encourages their students to quiet their self-doubts, to trust in their senses, to experiment, and to connect with their bodies and minds through hands on experiences. Since Casha’s teaching and artmaking practices inform and enhance each other, it makes sense for them to teach and create in the same space. Casha found this space in the Visual Arts Center of Richmond where they first became involved as a Printmaking Studio Monitor in 2019. Since then, Casha has been teaching through Vis Arts programs such as Artventure, Art After School, Art League, Second Fridays, and Engage Workshops.
