The course is designed to give students a basic overview of the relief printmaking process, as well as an understanding of what a print is. Students will be exposed to the basic techniques and concepts of relief printmaking, followed by in-depth, hands-on experience in the process. Both hand printing methods and press printing will be demonstrated. The class will be making small editions of black and white prints from linoleum and wood blocks; woodcut material, tools and color applications will also be demonstrated and discussed. Both traditional and contemporary approaches will be looked at through original examples. There will group and individual critiques spaced around work sessions.
