Printmaking

The printmaking program offers the B.F.A., B.A., and M.F.A. degrees. It provides a broad base of graphic art training. You will concentrate in two primary print disciplines – etching and lithography. Supplementing those areas are woodcut, silk screen, collagraph, monoprint, and papermaking. There is an opportunity for students to specialize by exploring the ancient and newly revived art of papermaking. Computers and ink jet printers are available in the printmaking studio to provide students the technical hardware to produce electronically enhanced prints. Emphasis is placed upon creativity and you are encouraged to explore both new and traditional printing methods. Past printmaking majors have found career opportunities as master printers, art administrators, consultants, art critics, illustrators, art faculty in universities and community colleges, art teachers in K-12 public education, gallery managers, display artists, book designers, and self-employed artists.
