Letters California Style Calligraphy Conference 2023

Set in Pomona College at the Kellogg center, over 120 people attended this wonderful conference. I was asked to teach my Botanical Printing class for the 3.5 days. I had a fantastic group of ladies and here are some of the outcomes.

Heat Press Play Date

 Full day of fun with friends. We experimented with the heat press machine to do our botanical printing. It was fun trying previous known ways to print without the long waiting time. Most were of 4 minutes in the press. We were usually able to print a new set every 5-10 minutes as we got our pieces together. New toy! All these photos were taken by Dean.

Another Botanical Printing workshop at Pence Gallery in Davis, California

A workshop of one day to introduce Botanical Printing to 8 great participants. It is harried but fun to squeeze in as much as possible to this wonderful craft. I surprised everyone with a Sun Hibiscus for each. These magenta flowers were 8" wide and gave a blue purple print. I had no time to photo and am relying on participant's photos.  The following were from Joan Jarvis.
