What are our Farmingville Artists up to?

Printmaking!

Over the past few weeks, each grade level has been exploring various printmaking techniques in the Art Room.

Here is a sneak peek...






Printmaking
The process of making one or more prints.

Monoprint
A print made from a plate that can be used only once.

Relief print
A print made by covering a printing block with ink or paint and pressing paper onto the block. The areas or lines gouged out do not print. (Examples: woodcut, block print, linocut, styrofoam plate, etc.)
