Marie Garza, technical director at Coronado Studio, says these organizations may hire the studio but send in an artist who is familiar with serigraphy to work alongside a more established printer when producing the promotional graphics.These works are called special editions, and Garza says the studio may keep one or two of these prints for its archives.

According to Garza, limiting the artist to a dozen or so colors helps keep the process moving at an acceptable pace.But she notes, "We do everything by hand, so the printer does get very tired."
Part of Garza's role at the studio is to document each artist's visit.She uses a combination of videography and photography to create archives and develop promotional materials for submittal to galleries and museums.
