There are certain words we seem to use repeatedly when talking about art-making. Express! Explore! Create! Such words are generally synonymous with the creative confidence of a child but at the AGGV Studio we say “Hey! Adults!” come celebrate your expressive exploratory creativity too.
With school being quite different from the norm during the pandemic, the AGGV is excited to lend a helping hand with our Teacher Resource Guides.
This edition of Art Terms will focus on the various techniques and terminology in printmaking. The AGGV has substantial holdings of prints from North America, Europe and Asia.
