Come along to a relaxed workshop at the crafters corner at Flourish, Glenavon Farm where you can explore this fantastic printmaking process. Learn how to combine everyday materials with quality printmaking resources to create your own drypoint etching designs. Using a traditional printing press is a vital part of this process so this workshop offers a fantastic opportunity to give this a go!

In drypoint etching, a design is drawn or scratched on a plate with a sharp needle-like instrument, inked up by hand and then run through a printing press- making each print truly one-of-a-kind.

In this workshop you will:

  • Discover what drypoint etching is and how to do it!
  • Use etching tools and a printing press
  • Explore your creativity with a little professional help
  • Take home at least two original prints of your completed artwork- with a smile

All materials, in addition to tea and coffee, will be provided for your morning of crafting to be complete.

Treat yourself to some relaxing me-time and leave feeling revived. Just take it from these previous guests:

'I loved this workshop- full of inspiration' 'Thank you for your great workshop! It was fun and relaxing at the end of a long day - amazing!' 'I left feeling upbeat and happy and like I wanted to do more art!'

This experience is ideal for: Beginners - it's a great workshop to introduce you to the world of drypoint! Intermediates- come along to try adding colour using a collage layer, called chine colle, to the printing process & of course return to use the printing press for more of your own creations!

Venue: Flourish at Glenavon Farm, 331 Bath Road, Saltford, Bristol BS31 3TJ
