Massasoit Community College

Subject:

Art

Description:

Woodcut, the oldest method of creating prints, is a direct and simple process. From strong textural illustrations of the fourteenth century in the Western World to the subtle transparent colors of the traditional Japanese print, woodcut has demonstrated its malleability to the images of artists over the centuries. A variety of relief printmaking techniques using traditional wood blocks, linoleum, and vinyl plates will be explored using reduction, key block, and line methods of registration.
