Printmaker

A printmaker is an artist who creates images or designs by transferring ink from a prepared surface—such as a carved block, etched plate, or screen—onto paper or other materials. This process involves carefully designing and preparing the printing surface, applying ink, and then pressing or transferring the image in multiple copies. Printmaking encompasses various techniques including relief, intaglio, lithography, and screen printing, allowing for both artistic expression and the production of multiple identical images. It bridges art and craftsmanship, combining creative vision with technical skill to produce consistent, high-quality prints.
