Perfect for complete print beginners or artists looking to broaden their practice and develop image ideas into print context.

What is Dry Point?
Dry point is a versatile printmaking process which involves etching an image into a polycarbonate plate ready for printing. Using etching tools you will carve the surface with your design, creating a beautiful and unique textured plate to print multiple editions from. You will then learn how to choose inks, ink your plate and print it using an etching press.

This printmaking process can be added to with watercolour paint, to give your prints a colourful touch.
