Skill Level: Intermediate
This intermediate course builds on introductory intaglio skills while introducing students to printing with multiple colors. Focusing on soft ground etching and relief rolls, the class combines demonstrations, image development, color mixing, and dedicated studio work time. Participants will create a soft ground etching plate using hand-drawn lines or found objects to capture texture, then expand their imagery by experimenting with relief rolls and stenciling techniques. By the end of the course, each student will produce a small edition or a series of unique prints.
Students taking this course should have a working understanding of intaglio.

WORKSHOP TRANSFERS, CANCELLATIONS, & REFUNDS
Our workshops are intentionally small to ensure each participant receives personalized instruction and access to Highpoint's studios and equipment. Because we commit to our teaching artists and prepare materials in advance, cancellations can have a significant impact on our ability to run a workshop.
