ANNA BRYANT
Anna Bryant’s work and expertise span a range of printmaking techniques, from relief and traditional screen printing to more recent focus on low-tech, experimental approaches like monoprinting with screens. Her artistic practice is centered on graphic compositions and condensed abstract forms that explore the figurative, blending structure and spontaneity to create visually engaging prints.
Anna is a founding member of Print House, where she fosters a community for accessible, hands-on printmaking. In this class, she brings her experience and passion for the medium to guide students in creating their own striking prints and exploring new and innovative approaches to composition, layering, and color.
DENISE MARKBREIT — PRINTMAKER and CO-FOUNDER of Print House
Denise discovered Akua ink - a soy based, safer printmaking solution while at an artists’ retreat. It was a game changer for her printmaking practices. Delving into safer techniques, without solvents or chemicals, opened up a world of eco-friendly printmaking possibilities including Mokuhanga, Mokulito, Mixed Media printing and Solar Plate print matrixes. Denise has been hooked on green printmaking ever since!
In addition to her pursuit of printed fine art images, Denise creates hand printed home accessories, and print based mixed media images and sculptures. Denise also teaches printmaking classes and workshops.
In 2018 Denise founded the Asheville Print Studio + Gallery. After the devastation of Helene in 2024 she founded Print House with fellow printmaker, Anna Bryant, in 2025. Denise holds a BFA from the School of Visual Arts and an MST from the Rochester Institute of Technology. Her fine art prints have been exhibited in numerous galleries and institutions across the country and reside in art collections worldwide.
