Learn to decipher various forms of fine art printmaking and produce images in relief, intaglio, and monotype. We will look at and discuss example works from the four families of printmaking, then get our hands dirty creating small editions of our own works on paper using both hand printing techniques and an etching press. No experience necessary.
