Etching and Aquatint with Karen Daye-Hutchinson
Designed for beginners and those with some experience. During this course you will be given a hands-on introduction to etching on Copper. You will be shown how to make your own prints using a variety of techniques under the guidance of your experienced tutor.
Etching is a medium with a long and varied history and can produce prints with great detail, richness and texture. The aim of this course is to give you an idea of the possibilities of the medium and a thorough introduction to working with hard and soft grounds (line, pattern and texture) as well as Aquatints (tones). What you will achieve by the end: You will leave with a small edition of etchings and a foundation on how to create editions of your image to share with others or adding to the growth of your printmaking and artistic practice.
No experience is necessary for this class and all the materials you’ll need will be provided by Belfast Print Workshop.
