Develop simple line drawings into layered prints.
With hands-on support from the tutor, you will learn to use a drypoint needle to create line and tone on a variety of surfaces, translating an existing drawing into a print-ready ‘plate’. You will be guided in how to print using an etching press and be introduced to colour techniques such as a la poupée and chine collée.
Inspired by the prints of Picasso and Louise Bourgeois, you will be encouraged to experiment with layering accessible printmaking processes to produce rich, expressive results.
