Intaglio Printmaking

With Louise Thompson

10am-4pm | £70/£60 concessions

Create intaglio prints using various surfaces, such as cardboard, Tetra Pak packaging and found objects at this workshop with printmaker Louise Thompson. We will explore the textures created when printing from these recyclable materials using the etching press.

This workshop will focus on experimentation in the morning session and then after a lunch break move onto creating finished artwork from your ideas and designs. The final pieces can be enhanced with the addition of watercolour paints

A workshop for adults (16+). Suitable for beginners and also people with some knowledge of printmaking.
