Abstract

This thesis discusses the processes of creating visually coherent art objects by means of engaging one's cognitive, intellectual and emotional faculties and experiences. Its approach to art education based on an understanding of the art educator's personal experience in the process of art making. Using phenomenological and experiential methods of teaching to validate inquiry into one's personal subjective experience, it functions as a qualitative research tool which can be applied to the investigation of teaching methods. This thesis is a documentation of recorded self-examination through five progressive sessions of art making. Each session investigate different forms of printmaking and their role in creating images. Session 1 investigates use of lithography in picture making; Session 2 is an application of intaglio; Session 3 an application monotype; Session 4 and 5 involves advance lithography and role of digital and computer generated imagery in lithography
