Works by Milford Students Featured in Gallery Exhibits

Last month the Cooperstown Art Association collaborated with Milford Central School on two exhibits, “On a Roll!: Steam Roller Printmaking” and “Adjectives, Verbs, and Nouns…Oh My!”
“On a Roll!” featured works from high-school students who designed their own block prints using medium-density fiberboard. Traditional printmaking tools such as gouges and dremels were employed to carve out the design, and Kiser Sand and Gravel donated a steam roller to use for the pressing process, to transfer the designs onto canvas and paper. Both prints and blocks were on display, with the occasional print and block combo showing off how the inverted design transfers to the canvas.
