Course introduction

This course is perfect if you would like to develop your skills on a day long programme in Intaglio Printmaking. 

This class is targeted at students who may have tried the process before but would like more time and support to explore the process and understand the technicalities.   

Intaglio printing is a printmaking technique in which an image is incised into the surface of a printmaking plate. The plate is then covered in ink before the ink is then removed, leaving ink only in the recessed lines. Using a printmaking press the image is then transferred onto paper. 

Throughout the day you will learn techniques such as, using Tetra-Paks to print with, using dry point print plastic, as well as a process called Chine collé. 

You will create a range of different pieces of work which you can take home with you, either on the day or at an arranged later date.
