Print 101: Drypoint Prints with Lindsey Groomes
Dry Point printmaking is like using a pen without the ink- literally, drawing with a dry point- to create an impression of a drawing. We will etch our drawing on a piece of plexiglass plate with a needle and print them on paper with our Conrad press! This technique is an incredible way to learn how to use fine lines to build up value and put your drawing skills, even if you're a beginner, to work.
