Exploring Printmaking with Charlotte Aldis

This course offers you the opportunity to explore a variety of printmaking techniques ranging from linocut to monotype, drypoint to collagraph.

Whether you have done it before or are new to the processes you will have the opportunity to learn and explore these different techniques with Charlotte’s expert guidance.

Learn about the different tools and materials and explore combinations of techniques over the ten weeks, play with colour and texture and develop your personal printmaking style!

Some of the techniques you can explore:

Drypoint – create fine detailed images by creating indents in a smooth surface.
Collagraph – create characterful prints from textured surfaces and found objects.
Monotype – create unique, unrepeatable prints via transfer, or subtractive and painterly methods.
Lino – cut designs into lino for relief printing; explore single and multiple-colour prints using masking and layering.
