Workshops
Introduction to Cardboard Drypoint
Barbara Harder
Cardboard Drypoint is a new way to create printing plates in a low-tech and inexpensive way. These plates hold beautiful linear and tonal imagery and evoke the rich, velvety, imagery of Rembrandt’s etching/drypoints. A form of collagraph, Cardboard Drypoints can be printed with intaglio and relief techniques using either water-based or oil-based printmaking inks. View the work of the artists listed here to see successfully use of these processes.
Jenny Robinson, developer of cardboard drypoint: http://www.jennyrobinson.com/
Evan Summer, collagraph: http://www.evansummer.com
Grace Bentley Scheck, collagraph: https://www.gracebentleyscheck.com
Supplies: CAW will supply basic print materials needed for this workshop.
Students need to bring an X-ACATO knife with extra blades, and black Sharpie pens.
A diamond tip scribe will be available for use during the workshop, or it can be purchased for approximately $25.
