Step into the spirit of the legendary Folly Cove Designers and learn the art of block printing with artist Mary Rhinelander in this four-week course. This class blends design fundamentals\, creative play\, and the rich history of Cape Ann&rsquo\;s iconic design collective. Referencing her unpublished book\, Design and How\, you&rsquo\;ll explore the principles of design that Virginia Lee Demetrios taught her students&mdash\;selecting a theme and exploring it deeply through clarity of line\, rhythm\, repetition\, and pattern&mdash\;and you will discover how her timeless ideas can elevate your own artistic voice. Each week builds your confidence as you sketch\, carve\, and print your way towards an original finished artwork. \; \;
\n\nPlease note: This class has four sessions. \;
\n\nMary Rhinelander is a professional artist with an MFA in printmaking. Gloucester is in her DNA\, starting with great-grandparents who spent summers on Eastern Point. She lives in East Gloucester\, in a yellow clapboard house once known as &ldquo\;The Summer Art House&rdquo\; where painter Theresa Bernstein and her painter/printmaker husband\, William Meyerowitz\, spent many decades (starting in 1924). Having purchased her home directly from their estate\, William&rsquo\;s etching press is still happily living in the sun-filled basement studio. Mary has had many solo and group shows and her work is in both public and private collections. She has painted murals\, designed logos and book covers\, illustrated for a variety of publications\, and taught students of all ages. In 2004 she founded Mermade Press\, a fine art card business. With a deep affinity for the Folly Cove Designers and Virginia Lee Demetrios in particular\, it has been Mary&rsquo\;s great pleasure to bring block printing workshops into Cape Ann&rsquo\;s public schools with the support of CAM and the Gloucester Education Foundation. \;
