Phoenix Art Space Adult Course Programme

Learn a simple etching technique and use a printing press to create your own prints.

Phoenix Art Space

Drypoint etching is a simple intaglio print technique in which you scratch your design onto a surface and then print it onto dampened paper using a press. We will make designs on clear plastic and on recycled cartons. We print with black and coloured inks and also add colour with tissue paper, a technique called chine collé.Suitable for all levels including artists and complete beginners. No experience necessary.All materials provided but students are encouraged to bring their own images to work from, such as drawings or photographs. There will also be images and objects to inspire you in the studio.Please wear old clothes as printing can be messy.Feedback from previous student: Rachel is an excellent teacher, engaging and resourceful, her long experience as an artist and printmaker was very helpful in enabling my learning.Image by former student Costs: £85 *Or buy a ticket for both the Monoprint Day and Drypoint Day together for £150: <a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/monoprint-and-drypoint-weekend-with-rachel-cohen-tickets-1272107169789?aff=oddtdtcreator" title="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/monoprint-and-drypoint-weekend-with-rachel-cohen-tickets-1272107169789?aff=oddtdtcreator">Monoprint and Drypoint Special Offer</a>Times: 10:30 - 16:30Dates: Saturday 21 JuneLocation: Red RoomMaximum: 8 <a href="http://www.rachelcohen.co.uk" title="http://www.rachelcohen.co.uk" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Rachel Cohen</a> studied Art History (BA) at Sussex University and Fine Art (PG Dip) at Brighton.
