Erika Greenberg Schneider lived and worked in France for 20 years, becoming a Master Printer in Intaglio and Lithography for Atelier Franck Bordas, and then Director and Master Printer of the Gallery Maeght print studios in Paris and St. Paul. She also served as a consultant and faculty member to the City of Paris for their experimental art school based on Thierry De Duve's philosophy "Faire Ecole." Motivated by her desire to share knowledge across disciplines, she has taught regularly at the university level. Upon returning to the United States in 1998, she was Master Printer of Intaglio at USF/Graphicstudio and a Visiting Professor in Drawing and Printmaking at USF Tampa. She is currently a Visiting Professor in the Graphic Design Program at USF St. Petersburg.

A relief print is an image created by a printmaking process, such as woodcut, where the areas of the matrix (plate or block) that are to show printed black (typically) are on the original surface; the parts of the matrix that are to be blank (white) having been cut away, or otherwise removed. Printing the image is therefore a relatively simple matter of inking the face of the matrix and bringing it in firm contact with the paper.
