Printmaking Weekend - Monoprint & Drypoint

A weekend course exploring Drypoint Etching and Monoprinting. Throughout the sessions you will gain experience using the Etching press and learn more about techniques such as Chine-collé and multilayer printmaking. During the course we will discuss editioning and mounting your prints. Texture, shape, composition, colour and mark making will all be encouraged during the sessions. You will be supported throughout the weekend by an experienced tutor who will guide you through the printmaking processes. There will be demonstrations of the techniques and discussions on artists work.

Teaching methods include illustrated talks, demonstrations of materials and techniques, practical printing experience, exchanging ideas and experience with others, looking at the work of inspirational artists, individual tuition and feedback, as well as informal group critiques.
