Learn the exciting process of printmaking while creating a series of beautiful 3 color reduction relief prints in this fun 6 week course! Using hand printing methods and ASiF’s beautiful Griffon press, students will learn the fundamentals of relief printing, including image carving techniques, ink application, and registration.
Reduction relief printing is a fascinating technique where images are carved into a soft rubber carving block using special tools to create colorful images through a series of printing stages. Each time an image is printed from the carved block, the block is re-carved, inked and sent through the press again for the printing of each color - culminating in a final print including all of it’s colorful iterations!
Students will have the opportunity to experiment with color blending and layering, resulting in unique and vibrant multi-color prints! This class is perfect for both beginners and experienced printmakers looking to expand their skills in this exciting and rewarding art form!
