The Printed Line: An Introduction to Printmaking Techniques

Great video! This studio looks like a dream!

This is amazing!

Well done. Enjoyable introduction video.

Being a printmaker myself, its great to see other artists work from the same field. Keep putting in the work.
Great video, thanks for sharing.

Such interesting information and what a calming video. Lovely. This was really helpful for me in my high school printmaking class.

Very helpful to have the visuals along with the description of all the techniques. Great video.

I've been a professional printer 30+years and understand the terms used by the facilitator in the line print docu. He is the one that uses the correct terms used in the trade today it isn't anything as you learn in schools I never went on to do screen printing because of the chemicals used in the process so I stock to expanding my knowledge of offset printing, there are still dangerous chemicals used but the main danger is losing a hand or fingers in a fast moving machine due to usually incorrect fitting ppe. Which must be worn at all times a machine moving at 13000 imp per hour chews the human body like a savageing dog as said him doing explanation of line printing can probably run a print press? That's how he knows the term registration which is a crussial part in printing just as much as colour match. Great videos and I could watch them continuously.

This is very helpful for students like me.

Great video! Thanks for sharing your process. If you are interested, I am building an etching press from scratch. You can check it out on my channel The Quixotry workshop 😊

This video has been of use to me, many thanks!

Thank you!

What a genuinely beautiful video!! Thank you!

relief (carving) - lino, wood end,
intaglio (etched) - chemical/non-chemical metal
dry point (etched) - directly drawn
etching (metal covered in wax) - chemical (different acid times)
aquatint (rosin dust, heated fused) - acid can bite thru it to give shading
photographic intaglio - coat metal with light-sensitive layer, expose negative film to ultraviolet, then acid
lithography (grease and water) - grease onto lithography stone or zinc lithographic plate, use brushes crayons etc., one ? per color
screenprinting - blocking out fine screen mesh with stencil or gum, ink squeegeed on (thru stencil), one stencil per color

I love this and his voice is very relaxing

I want to work with you

Ily for this bro frfr

helpful but some of the examples really didn't show the possibilities... many of these "famous" artists work is no better than what you will find in a local grade school (I've seen better in High Schools).

❤

Interesting presentation, but unfortunately, it is full of errors in the printmaking terminology.

I will help you and get discouraged when you get to achieve your goal to ensure that you may need to overcome the difficulty and dignity.

No sound 😢

What a wonderful introduction to these techniques. Despite going to art school (where we barely touched anything other than screenprinting and lino cut), this is the first time I've fully understood how some of these techniques work. Thank you!

Thank you. Very educational.

fabulously concise yet fully explanatory. Thank you to all involved. 🐈‍⬛

It was a very good introduction, the different techniques was a lot of information that I really had know ideal that it takes so much to be an artist,

This exactly what you need if you're going to be an artist, all the metal dry point ,sharp objects . didn't realize it took so much to become an artist it;s very interesting. but i'm completly lost,

Brand new printmaker here. Aspiring new print maker.
I needed to tell you how this one video changed my perspective and opened my eyes to what is possible.
I have not looked much at the masters because I presumed them to be intimidating. What I am finding is that the beauty is so simple and personal. I’ve been desperately trying to find the “personal” in my own art. This gave me a huge foot forward and I wanted to thank you for that. The etching and intaglio fascinate me. I believe, for now, that is where I will focus.
Thank you so much for this simple, beautiful explanation and exploration. It mattered to me.
