Rembrandt had just three techniques for printmaking: dry point; hard ground and soft ground. We now have around 20 techniques which can be used in combination. These include lift grounds, photo etching and transfers. This course focuses on individual support and development; to present possibilities, to progress your plans and your personal and professional objectives.

You will learn about and use a wide range of printmaking processes to produce your own original prints, including photo polymer, monoprinting, etching, lino printing, dry point, chine colle and relief printing.

Beginners can follow structured projects to learn new techniques and processes. More experienced learners will be able to pursue and develop their own ideas and projects and will be offered optional structured projects designed to stretch and challenge.
