What you'll do
Join this exciting craft course that will guide you through the inks to find your favourite printing process.
You'll be guided through each step of these five classes by experienced printmaker and supportive teacher John Howard, with extra help from some other talented technicians. You can explore a vast range of methods, or pick a particular area to refine your skills.
This intensive five-day printing course is suitable for everyone from absolute beginners to those with more experience in this creative activity. You'll get a chance to meet so like-minded artists in the area and share inspiration through different printmaking techniques.
Class sizes are kept small so there is plenty of time for bespoke tuition. Set your own ambitions for this week of learning how to print and experiment with the facilities and materials on hand. While you're here at the printmaking studio you can try silkscreen, monotype and etching processes.
The studio is nestled amongst other creative businesses so you can explore other inspirations while you here. There is also a cafe on-site, perfect for lunches. The entire place is fully wheelchair accessible.
Once your printmaking course is over, you will leave with some amazing artwork in hand to put up at home, turn into DIY greetings cards or give out as handmade gifts to loved ones.
Materials are provided with the exception of paper and printmaking plates. These will be available from the studio at cost price.
