You will prepare one image to print a number of ways using online digital printing and get this done before week 2. During the second session we will look at ways to improve these tests and get the best possible result for your print.We will be working with Adobe Photoshop for basic image adjustments and to print your small test prints.If you wish to print edition paintings or non-photographic prints, you will need to bring high-resolution photographs of your work.
