About the Workshop
B.I.G. formula is a safer alternative to traditional asphaltum-solvent-based etching grounds. In the workshop, participants will explore this versatile etching ground, discovering its potential to create the line, tone and texture qualities used in Intaglio prints! The three day workshop allows more time to explore both the etching and printing processes. Further information to come later this summer.

About Your Instructor
Andrew Baldwin started his career in 1976 working for 10 years in a small family commercial printing business where he was educated in the use of reprographics, letter press and lithography. In 1986 he joined the staff of Aberystwyth University School of Art as senior technician. In 2001 he achieved 1st class degree in Fine Art followed by a PGCTHE where he was awarded an Excellence in Teaching Award, and in 2022 he was presented with the University Lecturer of the Year Award.

Andrew has been teaching printmaking for over 25 years and has travelled the world demonstrating and promoting safer printmaking techniques which he has developed over the last thirty years.His development of a non-toxic etching ground known as B.I.G. and his associated safer processes including icing sugar aquatints, coffee lifts and photo-etching have now been adopted in educational settings and by artist printmakers in private studios around the world.

Andrew has attained several awards for his own printmaking, most notably Most Exceptional Artist by the Federation of British Artists, and winner of the printmaking section of Welsh Artist of the Year. He has lectured and demonstrated at the international printmakers’ conference Impact and at Universities in Canada and the USA. Andrew runs his own Printmaking Studio in Wales, Trefeglwys Printmakers, where he teaches non-toxic printmaking to international guests.
