What are book arts?
Book arts are the creative processes behind visualizing, designing, and making books. Elements such as 3-D and 2-D structure, time and sequence, text and image are considered.

What is printmaking?
Printmaking is an artmaking process which results, usually, in multiple impressions of the same image. Using a matrix made from stone, wood, metal or other material, you’ll learn to create and product images and/or text on paper and other surfaces.
