Fueled by a need to find closure in a deteriorating world, Wisconsin-born Lindsey Yeager paints and illustrates connections between society and nature, between human and animal, translating and reframing human contexts into fearful, raw, and feral allegories. Lindsey received a BFA in New Studio Practice and Illustration from Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design in 2021 and she went on to win two Society of Illustrators awards and participate in the 2021-22 cycle of Plum Blossom Initiative’s Bridge Work residency. Her work has been shown at Var Gallery, Mana Contemporary, Soft Times Gallery, Museum of Wisconsin Art, and Society of Illustrators, among others. Lindsey is represented by Var Gallery in Milwaukee.

Woodcut and Monoprint with Digital Applications
Jean Gumpper
Tuition $1,345
Code R0505-25
This rigorous, engaging, printmaking workshop combines monoprint and woodcut processes with a digital component. We incorporate laser-cut stencils and wood blocks together with painterly and carved marks to create images. We begin with observational studies from the natural world and explore multiple plate monotype methods. Woodcut techniques including laser-cut blocks are then added to layer transparent and opaque color. We make both editioned and unique prints, alternating between structure and improvisation. This back-and-forth serves as the format for the course as we combine multiple matrices in many ways.
