About This Group

This group is a platform to display, challenge and discuss our works.

Traditional printmakers images are not produced using a laser, or ink jet printer. They are painstaking produced from a hand crafted plate, or screen and pressed or screed by hand. This is what makes our group unique!

This group showcases traditional forms of printmaking from Etching to Linocut, from Screenprint to Collagraph. We also welcome experimental forms of printmaking where the print has been produced primarily by hand.

To this end could you please include your printmaking technique in the description of your image to validate it as a hand created artwork.
