printmaker
Etching plate worker
A printmaker is an artist who creates prints—images produced by transferring ink from a prepared surface to paper or another material.
The craft encompasses techniques like etching, lithography, woodcuts, and screen printing.
Unlike painters who produce unique works, printmakers typically create multiple copies from a single matrix: She trained as a printmaker in Japan, studying traditional woodblock methods.
