Spend the day exploring the medium of drypoint printmaking on this introductory course. Drypoint is an intaglio process and ideal for people who enjoy drawing. Work with line and tone on a variety of printing surfaces and leave with two small editions of prints.
Suitable for beginners. All materials included. This workshop will run 10am – 4.30pm with a short break for lunch. Full joining instructions from the tutor are below:
Drypoint is an Intaglio printmaking process which will use drawing skills – but don’t worry if you feel you ‘can’t draw’ (although I bet you can!) because you will be able to trace your images if you need to.
We will be working on a material called Rhenalon which is transparent and also having a go with ‘paper drypoint’ sheets. They both act very differently. We will have a go at adding blocks of vibrant colour using a process called Chine Collé. I hope you will go home with two small editions of prints and a feeling of having learned a little about a new technique.
