2: Printmaking

Printmaking

Printmaking is a yearlong course dedicated to the art of transferring ink from one surface to another. Projects include block printing (foam, linoleum, wood – hand and laser engraved options), etching (drypoint and laser engraved or solar), screen printing (on paper and/or t-shirts), and bookbinding. This class focuses on dynamic uses of compositional space and color. This course will help you become a better two-dimensional artist and demands you get messy and experiment with different versions of your best and worst visual ideas. This class helps you think through what makes a composition work and how you can integrate your (or someone else’s) success into future work.
