Blue Fig Editions Facilities | Blue Fig Editions

The Blue Fig Editions studio is located 20 minutes south of Nashville. We are open for visitors but it is highly recommended you scheduled an appointment. Our space includes over 1500 square feet of new construction with lots of natural light and enough room to accommodate several artists & projects. We carry a full line of printmaking supplies and have local resources to keep building those supplies. For environmental safety we use water base silk screen inks and mild cleaners. We also maintain a full line of David Smith inks for intaglios, monotypes, and relief printing. Within the studio space we have area specific to print mediums as well as areas specific clean work such as paper soaking baths and paper tearing and preparation area.
