Graphic Design and Printmaking falls under the broader category of Visual Communication. This subject encourages learners to explore the use of images and words in designs. Projects given cover a range of themes and develop creative thinking in finding suitable solutions for posters, packaging of all kinds, book/magazine and CD/ vinyl record covers etc.

Part of the fun is the exploration of printing techniques such as mono prints, lino and woodcuts, the etching technique as well as silk-screening and stencilling. Various printing inks are used to print, but media also include pencil and ink drawings, cut-outs and collage.
