Over the last months there has been lots of fossicking, foraging and pondering....on ideas, life, future and direction....a path is unfolding.....go round....up the ladder......get in knots......let the mud settle.....follow the arrows.

Summer School Drawing and Printmaking 2012

Snap shot of the Drawing and Printmaking class held last week. In workshop we looked at ways of drawing and mark making that related to the printmaking processes. 

The printmaking was taught from the viewpoint as 'taster' workshop for those who have always wanted to explore the printmaking processes and haven’t gotten around to it! 

 The methods of relief and intaglio will be introduced through the use of lino and dry-point and etching. Ways of printing with and without a press, suitable papers and inks will be discussed and demonstrated.




Mixing our own blacks for printmaking.
