How On campus

This is the bootcamp your art practice never knew it needed

Across five intensive, face-to-face days, you’ll expand how you think about drawing - experimenting with materials, techniques and processes to build a more confident, dynamic approach. You’ll learn to generate new ideas, take creative risks and communicate visually with greater clarity.

You’ll also explore how to transform your drawings and photos into prints, working with techniques such as drypoint, monotype with watercolour, metal plate etching and paper lithography.

Before you arrive, a short online orientation will help you prepare your ideas and source material so you can hit the ground running.

You’ll be guided by a team of practising printmakers, each offering different perspectives to help you develop your skills and find your creative voice. By the end, you’ll have produced a small body of print work and a fresh direction for your practice.
