Printmaking • The creation of images by various methods of replication onto various materials such as paper, fabric etc.
Basic Printmaking • Basic printmaking and prints are made from a single “plate.” • We will be creating a Relief print: • Relief printing –the background usually cut down leaving raised image which takes the ink(are usually wood and linoleum)
Linocut • Linocut techniques are similar to woodcut except woodcut is on wood and linocut is on linoleum • Linocut offers an easier working surface, more precision, and more variety of effects
Edvard Munch • Munch is know for “the scream” painting, but he also has works created from the woodcut technique
Stencils (Screen Printing) • Stencils are used as another method of print • In this Screen Printing process a design is drawn directly onto the screen, and undrawn areas are sealed with glue, varnish or tape. • Oil-based ink is then squeezed through the mesh of the silkscreen onto paper.

Lithography • Printmaking technique where the artist draws on a limestone surface with a waxy type crayon. The ink will not stick to the crayon areas, but it will stick to the stone areas.
