with Renate Mairie
$70
Welcome to Quick Print! These one-time classes offer students a crash course in one specific type of print without the commitment of a multi-week course. Perfect for beginners, experimenters, or anyone looking for a fun way to learn a new skill fast!
Drypoint printmaking is a fascinating intaglio (incising a plate) technique where images are scratched into a plate with a hard-pointed needle or tool. The scratches create burrs (raised edges) that hold ink, making it easy to get started with printing your design. And don't worry, you don't have to be an expert at drawing - we have stacks of magazines you can trace images out of.
Drypoint is the perfect combination of precision, technique, and total creative freedom, offering endless possibilities for unique and expressive artwork. Enjoy the process, and let your creativity flow!
Ages: 16+
