What a fantastic day co-hosting a Creative Kernow Associates mixer with eco-photographer . We shared our own creative practices then as a group explored the two by RISO printing collages made from lumen prints along with typography and graphics. We all brought our own ideas to the table and as with all Riso prints, each came away with totally unique prints! Thanks so much to for making it possible and to all that came, we had a blast!
