Many Strange Visual Effects Can Be Obtained By Overlapping Several Objects Containing Both Raised And Incised Shapes And Varying The Textures Of These Forms, Ruth F. Bravetti
Many Strange Visual Effects Can Be Obtained By Overlapping Several Objects Containing Both Raised And Incised Shapes And Varying The Textures Of These Forms, Ruth F. Bravetti
All Master's Theses
This study deals with the printmaking technique of embossing to create visual effects with "non-associative" forms. The prints presented deal with the realm of space and an atmosphere unrelated to our present environment or concepts of gravity. Several visual conflicts were achieved by overlapping objects, creating textured surfaces, and varying thickness, size, location, and shape of forms. Serigraphy, spray paint, flocking, and reflective beads were introduced in some of the prints presented in order to enhance the effect of embossing.
For the viewer to become involved with transparent "non-associative" objects was the main objective. The technique was limited to embossing …
I Made Some Prints, Teresa O. Tempero
I Made Some Prints, Teresa O. Tempero
All Master's Theses
In discussing the prints and drawings chosen for this study, I wish to consider mostly subject matter and composition, giving less mention to technique. The three forms of printmaking used are intaglio, collagraph, and woodcut. A specific theme was not chosen for these prints. Since printmaking has been such a relatively new experience of expression for me, I chose to concentrate this study on the printmaking process.
Expansion Systems In Drawing, Anna Jane Licka
Expansion Systems In Drawing, Anna Jane Licka
All Master's Theses
Drawing as a creative mode of expression has maintained in some artistic circles a "puristic doctrine." "Puristic doctrine" in this case means the utilization of characteristic drawing implements and techniques (ie. pen, pencil, ink, charcoal, crosshatching, shading). In contrast to this "puristic doctrine" is what can be termed an "eclectic expression" in art. As applied to drawing in this thesis, an "eclectic expression" will go beyond the traditional techniques by the application of other media such as photo-stencil, stuffed fabric, and three-dimensional tableau considerations. The purpose of this creative thesis is to expand the two-dimensional quality of drawing into a …
Images And Content, Robert C. Ellis Jr.
Images And Content, Robert C. Ellis Jr.
All Master's Theses
My primary purpose in this study was to explore the relationship of symbolism, imagery, and concept as they relate to printmaking and drawing. The techniques used in my work were collagraph printmaking, drawing, "painting-drawing", and three-dimensional construction. These works represent my development over a period of five quarters. As a result of this study, I expect that my perception and use of imagery, concepts and technique will continue to develop.
Design Of Spatial Interstices, Byron Hiroyuki Kato
Design Of Spatial Interstices, Byron Hiroyuki Kato
All Master's Theses
It was the purpose of this study: (1) to develop an idea visually as well as to articulate it in writing; (2) to evolve and develop illusions and realities of spatial interstices (spatial framents) as positive elements of two and three dimensional form; (3) to articulate, as objectively as possible, an analysis of the body of creative work.
A Series Of Prints Using Selective Print Techniques And Graphic Communications, Theodore Parks
A Series Of Prints Using Selective Print Techniques And Graphic Communications, Theodore Parks
All Master's Theses
The primary purpose of the study was to produce a series of original prints, using several selected techniques, and in certain instances combining with these an imagery to achieve the communication of predetermined concepts.
Collograph Platemaking Techniques, Clifton A. Barrette
Collograph Platemaking Techniques, Clifton A. Barrette
All Master's Theses
It was the purpose of this study to investigate the techniques in the construction and production of a series of original collagraph plates and prints. These were used to portray in visual, graphic form the diverse range of collagraph printmaking techniques.
A Study Of The Influence Of The Lyrical Prose Novels Of Virginia Woolf And Hermann Hesse On The Creative Process In Intaglio Printmaking, Kathleen Heather Embree
A Study Of The Influence Of The Lyrical Prose Novels Of Virginia Woolf And Hermann Hesse On The Creative Process In Intaglio Printmaking, Kathleen Heather Embree
All Master's Theses
It is the purpose of this study (1) to emphasize the complementary union between literature and the visual arts; (2) to limit the exploration to those specific lyrical prose writers: Hermann Hesse and Virginia Woolf; (3) to create prints utilizing the novel as a source of image-gathering but which do not retain this identity in the finished work; (4) I to experiment with the division of the plates, as well as cutouts for the effect of creating spatial illusion or imaginary space.
Investigations In Mixed-Media Printmaking, Jarold H. Powell
Investigations In Mixed-Media Printmaking, Jarold H. Powell
All Master's Theses
The device man uses to transport himself is one of his dearest possessions and one of his biggest problems. The relationship between man and his machine is the basis for the content of this thesis. Since walking became impractical, men have grown dependent physically, emotionally, psychologically, economically, and socially on a personal means of transportation. My own ideas and experiences are the source for the content of this series of works.
A Series Of Intaglio And Mixed-Media Prints Portraying The Negative Consequences Resulting From Man's Inhumanitarian Actions, Susan Clare Miller
A Series Of Intaglio And Mixed-Media Prints Portraying The Negative Consequences Resulting From Man's Inhumanitarian Actions, Susan Clare Miller
All Master's Theses
It is the purpose of this study (1) to portray in visual, graphic form the negative consequences resulting from inhumanitarian acts man inflicts upon himself and others; (2) to delineate these actions in a revealing, subtle manner that is still representative of the facts of reality; (3) to experiment with a diverse range of intaglio printmaking techniques and compositional arrangements which best produce the visual, emotional effects desired.
A Series Of Original Prints With The Human Image As An Important Compositional Element, John Paul Morgan
A Series Of Original Prints With The Human Image As An Important Compositional Element, John Paul Morgan
All Master's Theses
It was the purpose of this study to investigate and explore the use of the human image as a compositional element in a series of original prints. All of the available printmaking techniques within the knowledge of this artist were called upon to best express concepts and forms which he desired to portray. Three avenues of approach were used in the development of the print: (1) Transferring sketches made directly from the nude model onto the plate and developing the plate for the appropriate form of printmaking, (2) Developing the printmaking plate intuitively without sketches or preplanning, and (3) Planning …
A Creative Project In Printmaking Dealing With The Production Of A Series Of Original Prints Using Multiple Plates Printed In Relief And Intaglio Techniques, Gregory Wallace Hawkins
A Creative Project In Printmaking Dealing With The Production Of A Series Of Original Prints Using Multiple Plates Printed In Relief And Intaglio Techniques, Gregory Wallace Hawkins
All Master's Theses
It was the purpose of this study to explore and develop technical and aesthetic possibilities resulting from the use of multiple plates in printmaking: 1. by relating the content of separate plates through the combination of shape, color and implied narrative qualities; 2. by developing the contour of the total composition as a secondary visual effect of the multiple plates with no limitation as to media, material, or color within the production of the print.
