Printmaking (Intermediate) - Technologies and Development Processes

1. Overview

Students are taught by specialist staff who will offer practical advice and instruction together with personal encouragement in discovering individual creative skills.

This course is recommended for students who have completed the Foundation Printmaking course, or who have equivalent experience.

2. What you will study

Students will have the opportunity to explore more fully a range of intaglio applications such as copper plate etching. Students will be encouraged to develop their design understanding through personalised projects, exploring the potential of test pieces towards the production of small scale resolved prints.

Students are encouraged to keep a visual diary, which reflects their personal practice, individual interests and the work of other artists. This becomes a personal journal of their development during the course. Students will be able to build on their knowledge and understanding of printmaking processes through practical demonstrations, class talks, group/individual discussion and studio-based practice.
