Open to all levels, this course introduces and explores the single-block method of color printmaking developed in Provincetown in 1916 and known as the “Provincetown Print.” A history of the method is presented, followed by instruction in the technique. You’ll learn how to make a unique white-line print in the historical manner, using hand-printing and non-toxic materials. This four-day intensive course includes afternoon access to the print studio during non-class time.

Kathryn Smith studied painting and printmaking at the University of Maryland, receiving a BA in Fine Arts, with further studies at Maryland Institute of Art, University of Northern Colorado, Colorado State University, and University of Colorado, Boulder. In 1981, Smith returned to Provincetown to resume studies with her grandmother, Ferol Sibley Warthen, the renowned artist and a practitioner of the single-block, multicolor print developed in Provincetown in 1916. Smith has continued to produce traditional white-line prints professionally. She has been a year-round resident of Provincetown since 1988, teaching at the Museum School at PAAM since 1991 and at Provincetown International Art Institute (PIAI) from 1999-2002. She lectures extensively on the history of the Provincetown Print, teaching workshops in the US and Japan. Her work is represented in museum and private collections nationally and internationally.
