Ángel Botello was a Spanish-Puerto Rican artist, sculptor as well as graphic artist. The artisan pundits named him “The Caribbean Gauguin” for his use of bold colors and depictions of tropical island life. Botello is considered one of the greatest Latin-American post-modern artists and recognition and interest in his artwork continues to grow at this time, fetching unparalleled public auction pricing. Ángel Botello never attached to any certain artistic institution or movement and became a protean artist: he established his very own artistic style. Botello became a versatile as well as many-sided artist who worked well in all creative media at his reach: oil paintings, drawing, printmaking, bronze sculptures, wood carving, taking pictures and mosaics.

Intaglio engraving, as a technique of producing prints, was developed in Germany by the 1430s, well after the woodcut print. Engraving had been utilized by goldsmiths to be able to enhance metalwork, including battle suits, musical instruments as well as spiritual items since olden days, and the niello method, which needed rubbing an alloy into the lines to give a contrasting color, also goes back to late antiquity. It has been suggested that goldsmiths started to print impressions of their work in order to record the style, and that printmaking evolved from that.

Martin Schongauer was one of the earliest recognized artisans to take advantage of the copper-engraving method, and Albrecht Dürer is one of the most well-known intaglio artisans. Italian as well as Netherlandish engraving began slightly following the Germans, yet were well developed by 1500. Drypoint and etching were also German innovations of the 15th century, probably by the Housebook Master and Daniel Hopfer respectively. The golden era of artisans engraving was 1450-1550, and then the technique lost ground to etching as being a medium for artists, although engravings remained produced in significant numbers until after the advent of photography. Currently intaglio engraving is largely utilized for currency, banknotes, passports, and sometimes for high-value postage stamps. The look of engraving is oftentimes mimicked for things such as wedding invites by making an embossment around letters printed by yet another procedure (such as lithography or offset) to indicate the edges of an engraving plate.

Matt Brown has made woodblock prints in Japanese hanga custom since 1993 using Japanese tools and resources. The artist lives in the countryside of New Hampshire, among the New England states on the East coast of USA – the heartland of the American dream in which the very first immigrants from Europe landed with concepts of freedom, self-reliance and the desire of a far better life. Matt Brown’s woodblock prints present a lot more than the natural beauties of the US East coast. In the point of view of the observer they show the old and real American values.

Printmaking is a very broad medium in art and can be studied nearly anywhere, in art classes or from printmaking artists. Once you learn basic principles, you will discover there are many techniques to make a really great print.
