Title: Intro to Relief Printmaking by Hand
Description: This class is an introduction to printing relief and monotype printmaking processes without a press. Students will learn how to transfer an image onto a block, carve, ink, and print single and multi-colored images. Work will begin with the fundamentals of relief printmaking and then move into monotype and collage techniques. Specific importance will be placed on the development of image ideas, proficiency in cutting, and solid printing.

Relief printmaking is one of the oldest traditional printmaking methods. Areas of a block or plate are physically cut away to create a shallow “relief”. Using a brayer or roller, ink is rolled over the surface and adheres to the raised areas. Paper is placed onto the inked surface and printed via printing press, barren or spoon.
