Printmaking

About the Printmaking Concentration in Studio Art

The Printmaking concentration supports students in developing a personal vision and studio practice informed by a rich tradition and ever-expanding approaches to image-making. In our carefully maintained printmaking studios, students explore intaglio, relief, lithography, screen printing, monotype, artist’s bookmaking, and interdisciplinary processes integrating handmade and photo/digital matrixes.

Our Printmaking faculty are nationally and internationally recognized professional artists who train students with technical skills, instill a sense of conceptual rigor, promote creative research and mentor students for professional development opportunities. We collaborate with local print businesses through the Printmaking concentration to offer students industry experience and develop professional networks. The Printmaking Association of North Texas Students, PANTS, organizes exhibitions, community events, field trips, fundraisers, awards, visiting artist events and portfolio exchanges.
