During this workshop you will learn the process of etching including how to prepare a metal plate, how etching the plate works, drawing your image onto the metal, inking up the plate and printing editions using the printing press. You will see how your print develops and how, unlike lino printing, it is possible to re-work the plate to achieve desired effects and edit your design.

We will provide all the materials for the course.

Upon completion of this course you will be able to book Open Access and Print Club (3rd Thursday evening every month) . These two affordable offerings are for those with experience printmaking (or attended a workshop) and want to use the studio to develop their artworks and keep on experimenting.

What to bring with you

Clothes that you don’t mind getting ink on. Although we will be using water based inks and we have aprons, it’s best to wear clothes that are not precious.

Ideas - Please bring with you an image or art work you would like to use as inspiration. If you don’t bring an idea or inspiration for your print don’t worry because we have lots of inspirational books and ideas we use as tools for developing an image.

Feel free to bring snacks! Tea and coffee provided.

What you’ll leave with at the end of the day

Edition(s) of your print
