4. What  is  printmaking?   "...broadly,  the  produc/on  of  images  normally  on  paper  and   excep/onally  on  fabric,  parchment,  plas/c  or  other  support  by   various  processes  of  mul/plica/on;  more  narrowly,  the  making  and   prin/ng  of  graphic  works  by  hand  or  under  the  supervision  of  the   ar/st.”  –Encyclopedia  Britannica   print·∙mak·∙ing   noun  \-­‐ˌmā-­‐kiŋ\   1:  the  design  and  produc/on  of  prints  by  an  ar/st    
5. Basic  Components  of  Printmaking   Matrix   Surface   +   Ink   +   Print   =  
6. Relief   Woodcut   Linocut   is  the  process  of  making  a  print  with  a  matrix  where   the  non-­‐image  area  (nega/ve  space)  is  cut  away  and   the  image  area  (posi/ve  space)  is  lej  raised.  
7. 1.    Removing  the  ground.  
8. 2.  Inking  the  Cut  
9. 3.    Prin/ng  the  cut  onto  your  surface  
10. Emil  Nolde,  Prophet,  1912,  Woodcut,  12   1/2”  X  8  13/16”   *   Areas  of  high   contrast;  values   cannot  really  be   blended.   Strong   Raw   Powerful   Intense   Rough   *
11. Rockwell  Kent,  Workers  of  the  World   Unite,  1937,  woodcut  print,  8”  X  5  1/8”   *   *   Areas  of  high   contrast   Delicate  lines   *   Distance   between  lines   simulates   modulated   chiaroscuro.   *   Less  white  =   Fewer  areas   gouged  out  
12. Katsushika  Hokusai,  The  Wave,  from  1000  Views  of  Mt.  Fuji,  1830,  color   woodblock  print*,  10  1/4”  X  15  1/8”     *  To  add  different  blocks  of  unblended  color,  mul;ple  woodcuts  are  used—one  for  each  color.     They  are  registered  (lined  up)  to  ensure  that  the  blocks  are  correctly  placed.    
13. Intalgio   Engraved  plate  using  drypoint   Prepped  plates  about  to  be   etched   is  a  printmaking  process  that  transfers  the  images  via  the  areas  that  are   cut  away,  not  the  raised  areas  (the  opposite  of  relief  prin/ng).  
14. 1a  The  Plate:  Engraving   Burins   Engraving  a  plate   Burr   is  simply  crea/ng  burrs  (or  troughs  where  the  ink  seyles)  by   engraving  into  the  metal  plate.  
15. 1b  Plate:  Etching   Applying  the  ground   1.   Smoking  the  plate   2.   Making  the  image   3.   Making  the  etch   4.   Cleaning  the  plate   5.   6.   Finished  plate

19. Rembrandt  Harmensz  van  Rijn,  Christ  Preaching,  1652,  Etching,  61  1/4”  X  8  1/8”   *   Etching  with  acid  creates   consistent  depth  of  lines.   *   More  subtle  shading   effects  are  possible   with  etching.  
20. Mary  Cassay,  The  Leyer,  drypoint,  soj  ground   etching,  and  aqua/nt,  13  5/8”  X  8  15/16”   *   Aqua/nt   *   Drypoint   *   mul/media    
21. Lithography   is  a  printmaking  process  that  transfers  the  image  via  a  stone,   working  with  the  natural  resistance  between  oil  and  water.  
22. 1.    Draw  on  the  Stone   This  process  is  also  called  greasing  the  stone  
23. 2.    Treat  the  Stone   Trea/ng  with  gum  arabic   1.   Trea/ng  with  acid   2.   Cooling  the  stone   3.   Removing  the  material   4.   Applying  Asphaltum   5.   Wezng  the  stone   6.   *   Ghost  Image

27. Silkscreen   or  screenprin/ng  is  a  process  where  a  print  is  made  by   forcing  ink  through  porous  fabric,  ojen  through  or   around  a  stencil.
