Printmaking

Learn one of the many amazing and engaging printmaking techniques at Alchemy!  We offer press-based classes, screenprinting, alternative process printmaking, and more.

This is an introductory workshop to paper collagraph, a method of printmaking using various substrates as print matrices. In this workshop we will focus on using tetrapaks (or paper beverage lining) as a method for drypoint printmaking. Students will also have the opportunity to learn how to use glossy magazine paper and cardboard to create prints with an etching press. This is a great way to use excess coated paper and cardstock for your art practice! Materials will be provided, but participants are encouraged to bring any paper-like materials they are interested in experimenting with.This class is taught by visiting artist <a href="https://www.germprint.com/" title="https://www.germprint.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Isai Soto.</a> Isai has developed this class based on her art practice - this is the only time she will be teaching this here at Alchemy, so if you are interested, be sure to sign up!This class is held in the print shop on the AAC campus.
