Drypoint Printmaking Workshop

Discover the art of drypoint printmaking and learn how to transfer drawings from a copper plate onto paper.

Led by an expert printmaker, explore the techniques and options of drypoint with drawing on copper plates to create dynamic prints that highlight a variety of results with black ink. Through hands-on instruction, you will learn how to craft your own designs, with developing personal style and technique.

By the end of the workshop, you will leave with an understanding of drypoint printmaking, a finished print, and a drypoint copper plate.
