In this intensive printmaking class students will gain experience and first hand knowledge in the medium of drypoint printmaking. Students will learn to create images with varied lines and textures using an etching needle to dig and scratch into the surface of plexiglass, copper, or zinc plate by hand. Students will learn to vary their etchings with color, texture, and expressive wiping. Through this hands-on printmaking approach, students of all experience levels will come away with many variable print editions of their own and a greater appreciation for drypoint printmaking.
