Carborundum and Dry Point Printmaking Workshop with Dawn Brooks

Starting with a gallery tour, looking at key artworks we’ll explore texture, line and form to inspire our own prints. We’ll then experiment with Carborundum, a versatile technique that creates rich tones and textures with painterly and graphic effects, including an embossing-like impression.

We will also explore dry point, a simple, direct intaglio process where lines are scratched into a plate, holding ink to produce soft, velvety marks.

This technique allows for spontaneous, expressive mark-making without chemicals, resulting in rich, textured prints.

Tickets are £65 per person. All resources are provided
