The Evolvement in Printmaking Artwork Making Process and Technology Implementation as an Approach to Producing an Artwork

Printmaking is an approach to art-making which need patience and good discipline throughout the process. Usually, the production of printmaking artwork is done manually, starting with the production of the drawing, transferring the image or design onto the block, and continuing to the next processes to deliver the idea. Historically, much evidence has been proven that the usual process of making printmaking artwork takes a long time because it has to follow an organized process. However, in the printmaking artwork-making process, there is a need for a solution that can help artists upgrading the process of making printmaking artwork. This underlying study intention is to compile and establish the process effectiveness of technology involvement in printmaking artwork process. This research will implement qualitative research through observation on techniques, processes, and materials of the technique. By involving this technology aspect as part of the printmaking artwork-making process, this research will find a new knowledge for artists which can understand the process of producing artwork more efficiently and competitively. As a conclusion, with suitable and evolution in technology, the artist will have the opportunity to value printmaking and upgrade their skills in the future in parallel with the current technology development.
