The course outline needs updating with the inclusions of newly developed S.L.O.s;
class size is limited to 8 because Art 58 will always be offered in tandem with
another printmaking class or additional lab classes, so the number of students in
Art 58 will be half or fewer the total enrollment.

RECOMMENDED PREPARATION
No
Yes
Course(s): Art 46
Rationale for Recommended Preparation:
In this course, students devise their own assignments under the supervision of the
instructor. Basic printmaking skills are needed in order to sucessfully work in a semiindependent manner.
COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES
What should the student be able to do as a result of taking this course? State some of the objectives in terms of
specific, measurable student accomplishments.
1. Demonstrate technical skill competency beyond basic level (mixing ink, applying ink,
preparing plates and screens, printing plates blocks and screens) with a variety of
printmaking techniques to include monotype, intaglio, serigraphy, and relief.
2. Create a suite of printmaking projects that follow consistent, independently-devised
themes and content.
3. With this suite of prints, demonstrate an intermediate-level technical and conceptual
comprehension of the fundamentals for image-making in print media, including monotype,
relief, serigraphy, and intaglio.
4. Verbally describe these intermediate-level fundamentals for representational and nonobjective image-making in printmaking.
COURSE CONTENT
Themes: What themes, if any, are threaded throughout the learning experiences in this course?
1. Research and experimentation with individually-devised subject matter (i.e., still-life,
landscape, nature study, portraiture, abstract/non-objective imagery, etc.).
2. Research and experimentation with media (i.e., toner, paints, oil- and water-based inks,
etc.).
3. Research and experimentation with process (i.e., serigraphy, relief, intaglio and
planographic).
4. Research and integration of personal experience and personal icongraphy into image
making.
5. Research and integration of visual art's aesthetic principles into image making (i.e.,
line, shape, composition, space, value, color, texture, etc.).
6. Awareness and implementation of environmentally sound and safe practices in
printmaking.
Concepts: What concepts do students need to understand to demonstrate course outcomes?
1. The tools and techniques for printmaking including serigraphy, monotype, relief,
intaglio and digital combinations.
2. Line (including hatching, structural, and contour).
3. Composition (including unity, balance, focal point, and negative space).
4. Value (including tonal density, ink density and color).
5. Color (including color mixing and color's emotive and symbolic properties).
6. Texture (including actual and implied).
7. The varied methods that artists use to research and develop their own personal
content and subject matter.

Issues: What primary issues or problems, if any, must students understand to achieve course outcomes (including
such issues as gender, diversity, multi-culturalism, and class)?
1. The dialectic between personal and institutional imperatives and expectations in
artmaking.
2. The intervention of electronic and other technologies within regional, national, and
global art practices.
3. The dialectic between historical/traditional and contemporary/experimental issues in
current art practices.
4. Original prints vs fine art reproduction.
Skills: What skills must students master to demonstrate course outcomes?
1. Make prints at an intermediate level using a variety of techniques, including serigraphy,
monotype, relief, intaglio and digital combinations.
2. Follow directions, listen carefully during one-on-one critiques, and thoughtfully
respond to questions and issues posed during these critiques.
3. Complete a suite of unique and original prints by using intermediate-level technical and
conceptual skills in line, composition, value, color, and texture.
4. Be able to explain verbally (at a more advanced level than in Art 46) the technical and
conceptual skills connected with serigraphy, monotype, relief, intaglio and digitally
derived print combinations.
REPRESENTATIVE LEARNING ACTIVITIES
What will students be doing (e.g., listening to lectures, participating in discussions and/or group activities, attending
a field trip)? Relate the activities directly to the Course Learning Outcomes.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Completing in-class individualized laboratory assignments.
Completing homework assignments.
Preparing portfolios of artworks.
Reading assigned essays.
Participating in one-on-one discussions and critiques.
ASSESSMENT TASKS
How will students show evidence of achieving the Course Learning Outcomes? Indicate which assessments (if any)
are required for all sections.
Representative assessment tasks:
1. Written tests and quizzes on the concepts covered in class.
2. Individualized projects.
Required assessments for all sections – to include but not limited to:
1. Instructor evaluation of the students' individualized projects.
2. Participation in regularly scheduled one-on-one and group critiques to assess
students' verbal communication and conceptual comprehension of the individualized
skills, themes and concepts developed by the student and the instructor.
