printmaking, is not printing a canvas. Though its an traditional art, its a process of printing from wood blocks, litho stones, zinc plate on paper. Its a process of taking multiple impression from one surface, where if the surface is wood, you carve the wood, roll ink over it, place paper on top of the wood and rub from behind to take prints. Earlier days this process was used to print books, now it has remained as an art form. I am an printmaker and an artist. Please answers if you know, and not copy from google. read less
