Printmaking Blog

MIcah Carrera  ART 9




Printmaking is when a picture or design is printed from a special stamp, block, or plate that is specially prepared. This is important because it is a beautiful addition to the category of art and is a profession that many people do today. The invention of printmaking was revolutionary because these prints were sold for a lot of money and was seen as something that brought people together.




This print stood out to me because it is very detailed. I notice that the artist used many lines to create the face. I wonder if the artist intended the whole print in general t make the Lion look very angered, not from his facial expressions.
