Using copper, aluminum or acrylic plates, students will explore a range of techniques and possibilities that develop the connection between drawing, painting and printmaking. Multi-layered observed and imagined drawing, ink manipulation, found and appropriated imagery, and text will encourage both image development and process. Traditional and contemporary approaches to etching/intaglio, including hard ground, lift ground, aquatint, drypoint, and photo etching will demonstrate new ways of thinking about making editioned or one-of-a-kind etchings.
This class will be taught out of the artist’s studio. Directions will be supplied upon registration.
