According to Scholastics, Printmaking is work made by transferring ink from one prepared surface (plate, screen, etc.) onto paper or another flat surface. Examples (including but not limited to): Woodcut/linocut, monotype, intaglio, lithography, etching, silkscreen printing, collograph, etc.
"The process of the technique, collaborating with the print shop to create layers of color that translate into an image, has an influence on the finished piece." - Sonia Romero
" It’s a very tedious and somewhat complicated process, but with such rewarding results. I continue to create new editions of lithographs and serigraphs every year. Because I tend to work on a massive scale, it really provides me with the opportunity to work on an intimate scale with quicker production turnarounds. I’ve always tended to approach printmaking with a willingness to experiment and aim for different results than I would get from a charcoal drawing or oil painting." - Vincent Valdez
