Have you ever wished you could make multiple copies of a favorite drawing? Printmaking, one of the first methods of mass communication, allows artists to do just that. In ancient times, some people even thought magic was involved. In this exciting studio, students create their own original prints using techniques such as monoprint, relief, and basic screenprinting. In learning these various printmaking techniques, students will explore infinite opportunities of mark making, achieving various motivations of creating printed works and to support the development of amplifying one’s artistic interests and understanding each print process.
