Lovely exhibit and activity!

Inspired by the structure of plant cells, Oakland-based artist Lea Redmond has created an intricate wall installation inside The Art Loft using custom made stamps.

We’ll be stamping and printing using a variety of techniques. Press painted objects and inked stamps onto paper to create patterns, or use custom stamps made by artist Lea Redmond to create an original design on paper.
