All Levels Printmaking 2
A 5 week course introducing a range of printmaking techniques using traditional and experimental materials
Please note: students don’t need to have completed All Levels Printmaking 1 to take part in this course.
This five-week course introduces three intaglio printing techniques: drypoint etching on plastic and on tetrapaks, then collagraph. Each week, the tutor will guide students through new techniques, allowing them to explore and experiment with the different methods and create a diverse range of prints.
Recycled materials, such as tetrapak, cardboard and textured papers, will be used, alongside specialist papers and inks designed for intaglio printing. Students will have the chance to work with both black and coloured inks, and chine collé, a process in which coloured tissue is added.
Throughout the course, students will be able to create unique prints and also editions (multiples). Everyone will have the opportunity to work with the studio’s printing press, gaining hands-on experience with this specialist piece of equipment.
Suitable for all levels including beginners, no experience or art training is needed.
Returning students or others familiar with the techniques are welcome, and may work on their own projects or try more advanced techniques with guidance and advice from the tutor as needed.
Please wear old clothes as printing can be messy.
Costs: £125
Days: 5 Thursday evenings
Times: 18:00 – 21:00
Dates: 12 November – 10 December
Location: Red Room
Maximum: 8
