Summer Tasters #2 : Intaglio printing - Wednesday 11th June 2025
Evening Course, Wednesday 11th June, 18:00-20:30, £35 each or £120 for all four, All levels
For participants to gain a basic understanding and practical knowledge of how to design, carve and print an image using intaglio techniques such as dry point.
Intaglio printing is the opposite of Relief printing (such as lino or potato printing). In relief printing the raised surface gets printed (think potato print). But, with Intaglio the ink is inside the grooves of the plate which you create by drawing into the plate. Those inky grooves are printed as opposed to the raised surface. Confused? Turn your confusion into curiosity and come along!
This course can be booked individually or as part of the full Summer Tasters Series. On the 4th June we will explore Collographs, 18th February we will look at Lino printing and on the 25th June we will be Block Printing. Each class is £35 each or £120 for all four. Book all four classes here.
We will provide all the materials for the day.
What to bring with you
Clothes 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
