What is a Print?

Sorry, gang for being gone a bit lately.  I guess you could say life got in the way.

I’ve always have been interested in different styles of printing images.  Some forms are still used by thousands of people everyday, while others are more just used for particular forms of art.  Take for example screenprinting.  We see this form of printing everyday on our clothing and other items.  This can be done by hand, or all done with a computer and very expensive machines.  It all seems very modern, but the general process has been around for thousands of years.

I stumbled on an interesting page provided by The Museum of Modern Art showing a flash presentation of 3 different forms of printing.  Check it out.  It’s short and sweet, and you might learn a little something.
