Archival quality paper and special inks are used to ensure that the print has a very long life. The main printmaking processes used for creating original prints are etching, screenprinting, lithography, relief printing and other techniques such as collagraph. Original prints must involve the artist in their making, as well as a master printer, and are different from reproduction prints where large numbers of copies are made using photographic methods.The artist needs to work with a printer who specializes in art prints. There are many different methods, and the printer can discuss which one it best. To find a printer, you can consult your telephone listings book (Yellow pages), or look in Artists Magazines. Your best source would be to join an artists organization. You can find more information by visiting the art galleries in your area.
