PRINTMAKING & CERAMICS
Journal and Pencil Please!
FOUR MAIN TYPES OF PRINTMAKING
• Relief Printing
• Intaglio
• Planography (Lithography)
• Stencil : Serigraphy
Relief PrintingThis is printing from a raised surface.
1. A simple example of relief printing is a rubber stamp pressed into a stamp pad and
pressed onto a piece of paper.
2. Relief printing plates are made from flat sheets of material such as wood, linoleum,
metal, styrofoam etc.
3. After drawing a picture on the surface, the artist uses tools to cut away the areas that will
not print.
4. Mirror Image
Intaglio
1. This describes prints that are made by cutting the picture into the surface of the printing plate.
2. Using a sharp V-shaped tool - called a burin - the printmaker gouges the lines of an image into the surface of a smooth polished sheet of metal or in
some cases a piece of plexiglass.
3. To make a print, ink is pushed into the lines of the design
4. The paper is literally forced into the small lines that have been cut into the plate. A variation of
this technique is known as etching.
Etching
Planography is the printing of a flat surface.
Planography (Lithography)
1. A design or image is drawn on the surface with a greasy material - grease crayon, pencil or ink - and then water and printing ink are applied.
2. The greasy parts absorb the ink and the wet parts do not.
Stencil : Serigraphy
1.A stencil is a sheet of paper, fabric, plastic, metal or other
material with designs cut, perforated or punched from it.
2. Ink is forced through the openings onto the surface
(paper, fabric etc.) to be printed.
3.Sometimes called silk screening, serigraphy (seri
means silk) is a type of stencil printing.
Monotype
Monotype is a one time print
The process permits only one copy; thus "monotype."
Modern monotypes take advantage of a wide variety of materials including cardboard, etc., with artists creating veritable collages on the surface, then printing them for surprising results.

How the project will be GRADED… Printmaking & Ceramics!
Product (Contents):• You must make at least TWO linoleum relief
plates and print 2 exceptional final prints of each design…later will come ceramics
• One side of the plate should display a creative and INTERESTING composition (you will receive more credit if it is based on an original idea!)
• NO logos, drugs, cigs., alcohol, no copying other artwork!!!!
• The other side should represent a repetitive design or pattern that cover the entire surface
Process (Craftsmanship):
• You must use the carving tools in a safe and appropriate manner
• Your image must be a mirror image on the linoleum plate
• Take care in your work; KEEP it neat and organized!
• 4 sketches before you begin!
Studio time:• Stayed on task • Worked continuously throughout the class
period• Must participate in clean up & put
materials AWAY• Make up any missed days: That means
excused or unexcused, 3 tardies = 1 absence
