Visiting Artist Karla Hackenmiller


This is Karla Hackenmiller, printmaker extraordinaire from Ohio University, who will be creating and editioning an intaglio print in the printshop (KV025) this week, utilizing multiple copper plates. Here she is examining a plate that she has just pulled from an acid bath. On Tuesday, April 14, she will be giving a presentation about her work starting at 1:30 in the shop. Try to stop in if you can make it, or stop in to the shop throughout the week to see how things are progressing.

  4. Im looking forward to meeting her tomarrow in class and helping out. I love printmaking and hopefully Ill learn a few different things because I know that everybody has certain individual methods they use to create their prints that are pretty interesting. I just developed a certain way I like to wipe my plates so Im excited to see the certain steps she takes.

  7. I enjoyed her lecture this afternoon. Her graphite drawings were nice, but I loved her collage. All the details were just incredible!

  8. I really enjoyed her presentation also. Her prints of people in everyday jobs where really inspiring. Most people in this world do not get a lot of credit for what they do, and i believe everyone should have their day and her prints reflected that idea. Her drawings were also very detailed and well done. And as a huge fan of collages i really enjoyed her collage mark making pieces, something ive never really seen too much of in print.
