Printmaking

Printmaking provides the unique opportunity to create multiple images using the printing press. Both drawing and painting skills are employed in the creation of a print. Through classical and experimental approaches—including lithography, etching, relief printmaking, and screenprinting—students explore a variety of mark-making techniques and develop a unique body of imagery. They become familiar with presses, rollers, fine-art papers, inks, and the basic terminology of the medium. The final project deals with sequencing; each student creates a varied edition, a series, or a book.

Printmaking may be paired with Illustration or Screenprinting.
