Ep 54 - Thin Lines: An Introduction to Printmaking - a podcast by BYWAP

Let's start at the very beginning, it's a very good place to start. To talk about printmaking, we must return to the humble beginnings. After all, we live in an era (we live in a society!) where access to paper and printing is commonplace. We here at BYWAP invite you to join us for a fun dive through all the ways artists have mastered and manipulated ink on paper!

Join us as we marvel at industrialization and the printing press; express outward concern and horror for all the ways artists use dangerous substances to make pretty art; scream about the many, many, many, many, many, MANY lines it takes to make prints; and, take refuge in the knowledge that we mad respect these crazy printmaking cats because they make collecting art a lot cheaper—Accessibility is good!   

Things have changed, but we're changing with it.
