Learn to Drypoint print using a press!
This half day workshop is perfect for complete beginners, or for those needing a refresher or some time for creative development.
Drypoint is a form of intaglio printing similar to etching, but without the need for acid to etch the plate. You will be using an etching needle and other metal tools to scratch your design into your printing plate. You'll be able to create a range of tones and line work to bring your image to life! You'll also learn how to use a printing press.
