Course Description

Summary

This class explores how to make fine art black and white and color inkjet prints from digital files. Students will learn how to edit digital media with Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom by using non-destructive workflows to preserve the integrity of their files. The course will emphasize developing technical proficiency along with making meaningful decisions on when, why, and how images get printed. Sample papers will be provided in class, but students can expect to purchase their own papers, including different proprietary sample paper packs, for their final portfolio. Digital files can get exponentially larger when edited in a non-destructive format, so an external harddrive to store work is required.
