Explore repeatable printmaking at its easiest, most accessible form. This workshop will teach you these  ins and outs of non-chemical intaglio printmaking—a centuries-old technique for translating drawings  and marks into a repeatable edition of prints. Using simple skills, artists will have the opportunity to  discover the ease of quick and easy intaglio printing. Along the way, artists may learn about basic  viscosity printing, chine colle and exploratory inking techniques. No experience necessary; beginners  are encouraged! Enrolled artists will be emailed a small list of items and images to provide closer to  the start of this workshop.
