Line Etching Workshop with Sarah M. Newton

So I always wanted to try out Etching and I think this might be the perfect opportunity - plus, I will finally make my own Christmas Cards which has been on my to-do list for about 15 years.

My amazing studio mate Sarah is teaching this class in December and everyone is cordially invited to sign up - the fee includes all materials:

Intro to Line Etching Class at Graphic Arts Workshop

This class is geared towards those with no printmaking experience who would like to understand the basics of etching. We will cover the following:
  • applying ground
  • drawing an image on the plate
  • etching the plate
  • printing - with some basic techniques for adding a colored background to your image.

If things don't quite work out, I guess I could still order these lovely cards by Richard Evett Bishop here.
