Each LBPF we feature a print artist, host a portfolio exchange and print auction, and provide free print demos. Additional 10 PRINTS/ The additional 10 prints will be exchanged with your peers from class. I will divide the class into 2 portfolios. So you will get one of your prints along with 9 from your peers. |
