Take a line for a walk exploring multi-plate intaglio printmaking! Join artist, printmaker and 2014 Flourish award winner Michelle Keegan for an exciting 3 day summer school which will focus on exploring multi-plate printing using collagraph and drypoint technique – no etching required!

Experiment with Drypoint to make marks on aluminium plates – building up surfaces without the requirement of etching chemicals. You will use traditional scrapers and drypoint needles along with sanding and more innovative mark making approaches. Learn how to ink plates ‘a la poupée’ – a multi-colour inking technique, and explore using transparent inks to achieve layering of colour and images. You can also experiment with the arrangement of the plates to make different compositions.
