Continuing Education

133/141 West 21st Street

Block printing is an extremely accessible method of printmaking for artists of any skill level. Carving from linoleum and rubber, we will explore the basics of block printing and what imagery works best for the medium. Different printing techniques, including using a press and DIY printing that can be done at home will be addressed. Beginning with carving skills, students will create a stamp to be printed as a pattern on paper and textile. The second day will focus on individual projects. Students will complete the workshop with the skills necessary to continue making work without the aid of a printing press.
NOTE: This course is held on campus at SVA.
