Bio
I'm Whitney Farnsworth. I'm from the state of Vermont but I'm currently majoring in printmaking at Montserrat college of art in Massachusetts. I was a painting major but then came into printmaking after taking one class at school and fell in love with it. With that being said I took a little leap in switching majors and that was one of the best decisions I've made for me as an artist.
With switching to printmaking i have more ways to experiment with my prints and more materials i can use. its freeing to not be restricted on the materials and process i can use to produce my artwork
Featured Work

“me time” 2023
Linoleum print
8'’ x 11'’
This is my biggest print ive done so far in my printmaking journey. This is a 4 foot by 4 foot woodblock print. The carving its self was way worth the time and the work my hands did. This project took over a month to do. The carving alone took about 3 weeks.

color is one of the main things i love using in my prints. To me using bright, muted, or different values of colors makes my art stand out. Along with that color most of the time sets the mood for my work or plays an Important roll within it

Monotypes are a new found favorite of mine. granted these two art PIECES arent monotypes but the monotype is the pink and blue watercolor effect for the background. These two monoprints are done with adding simple green to ink and printing that, then i used some linoleum i had to print on top of that for the flowers and the character stepping in gum
