Tuesday – Introduction to Relief Printmaking 14+ – Term 4

23.04.11 WSA Experimental Printmaking_ Course outline_CP edits

An 8-week course exploring relief printing processes with non-toxic water-based inks.

Introducing students to processes that can be done both with and without a press: blending colour layers, monotype prints, single colour and reduction woodcut prints, and the formalities of labeling/signing work, framing and exhibition opportunities.

This introduction forms the basis for a second term of multi block printing and reduction printing, developing your own work from the processes explored. Many students carry on for several terms to further develop their printmaking skills.

Students are encouraged to explore new ideas and learn through experimentation and discussion in a relaxed and friendly studio environment.
