Skill Level: Previous Intaglio experience is helpful, but not necessary. We will be going over the Intaglio basics before moving into the registration portion of the class.

 

Have you ever thought: "Hey, I wish this intaglio print had another layer of color?" Here is your opportunity!

This class will allow students the opportunity to learn how to register two intaglio plates to add a splash of color to their prints. Students will learn the basic fundamentals of Intaglio: including, drypoint and etching, to make their images where then they will learn how to register and print two plates on the same paper. Through guided demonstrations and time to work, participants will be able to make a two-layered intaglio print and create a small edition of their own artwork.

This six week course will give students the opportunity to work through all parts of the printmaking process including: planning, processing, testing, altering, testing, and finally printing again with two plates on one image. Classes will be focused on worktime, with demonstrations sprinkled throughout the weeks.
