Create fine art grade prints and editions with minimal materials! No printing press? No problemo! We will explore a "ready-set-go!" approach to transform your line drawings and photo references into a printable plate with ease.  Drypoint is an intaglio printmaking technique created by scratching designs onto a plate with a sharpened stylus. Similar in appearance to etching, drypoint does not require a chemical 'plate biting' process. This kind of print-making can be achieved successfully with non-toxic, odorless and water-based inks.
