Exploring Printmaking
This course is an introduction to the exciting world of printmaking. Starting with monoprint, you’ll explore a wide range of etching techniques from the drawn line to creating tone with aquatint. You’ll explore techniques including hardground, softground, drypoint, and colour printing. There will also be the option of trying linocut and woodcut. You can work from observation or bring your own drawings and imagery for inspiration. By the end of the course you’ll have a portfolio of prints to take home. This course is suitable for all levels and abilities.
