Next steps with drypoint with Kyla Cresswell

Sunday 30th March
10am-1pm (3 hours)
201 North Road, North East Valley, Dunedin 

So you have the foundation of drypoint and you’re keen to expand on this? Good news, printmaking is filled with endless possibilities! Come along and learn techniques for adding colour, printing multiple plates or try printing on to different papers including Japanese paper. 

It is optional to bring your own drawing or photo to work from, but the image size needs to be 100 x 150mm max. (If it matters to you, please be aware this image gets reversed in the printing process. To avoid this, bring your source image reversed. You can ask a copy shop or ink jet printer to ‘flip’ or ‘mirror’ image your source imagery in advance of the class.)

All the supplies you need on hand––drypoint scribes, roulettes and other tools as well as ink, paper, plate, gloves and aprons. 

Morning tea provided.
