4 credits. Every semester This intensive introduction begins with intaglio, which involves sharply etched lines or velvety, delicate tones achieved on a copper plate. Students are then introduced to silkscreen, which uses photo and resist stencils to create multilayered images on paper or other surfaces. Through exposure to the unique characteristics of each medium, students greatly enlarge the technical vocabulary with which to refine and express their ideas.

4 credits. Every semester In this concentrated overview of each medium, the surface vibrancy, richness, and extraordinary textural range of lithography are coupled with the directness and graphic qualities of woodcut.

Students learn how paper is made by viewing demonstrations of pulping, dying, pressing, pouring, casting, and spraying paper pulp.

4 credits. Spring Students explore ways in which printmaking and digital media can be linked to inform and enhance their artistic expression. Working with both the static space of the printed page and the dynamic, temporal space of the computer, students gain experience and make artworks using techniques of print media together with digital imaging and animation. Prerequisite: One printmaking course, demonstrable Photoshop experience, or permission of instructor

4 credits. Spring Monotype is a bridge between painting and printmaking. Students use brushes, paints, inks, rollers, and drawing implements to create unique prints from a Plexiglas or metal plate. The nature of the process allows students the freedom to work in a direct, spontaneous manner leading to gestural images and textured surfaces. Prerequisite: Must be a sophomore, junior, or senior visual arts major, or permission of instructor

and 3680 4 credits ( per semester). Every semester In this two-course sequence, all aspects of the limited-edition artist’s book are explored.

Students realize the potential of narrative, sequence, and pacing, together with the importance of combining word and image. Discussions include letterpress, binding, other bookmaking techniques, and printmaking media. Prerequisite: VPR 2010 or 2020
-
4.00 Credits
3800, 4750 4800 4 credits ( per semester). Every semester These sequential studio courses allow students to broaden their printmaking experience and experiment with one or more printmaking media. Advanced techniques, color separations, multiplate printing, collage techniques, and both digital and photomechanical printmaking are demonstrated. The studio work is supplemented with individual and group critiques, field trips, and/or visiting artists. Prerequisite: VPR 2010 and 2020
