In this course we will explore everyday tools printmakers can use to digitize their work.
What is a high-resolution image and how do you create one to submit artwork? How do you scan in old slides and negatives? How to use Photoshop to create a print from a drawing or photograph? Throughout three Saturdays, we will explore how printmakers can use computers as a tool. We will use iPhones, the office printer, laptops, Adobe Photoshop, and thumb drives. Participants must bring existing prints, photos, drawings, slides or negatives. Anyone with a Mac or laptop or Photoshop is encouraged to bring them, but this is not a requirement. This course Is intended for printmakers with minimal computer skills. Software installation will not be covered. Students should be familiar with using an iPhone and computer to create, save, and email photos. Students should be familiar with downloading new apps to the iPhone when needed.
