Four times a year (always January/winter, April/spring, July/summer, October/autumn), a workshop weekend takes place in the printing workshop of the Forum für Kunst Heidelberg, where participants have the opportunity to learn about the drypoint printing technique and/or work on their own printmaking projects.
Drypoint is an intaglio printing technique in which a steel needle is used to draw into a metal plate and then printed with oil-based inks using a printing press.

On the first day of the workshop, we will prepare our printing plates and paper and produce the drawing on the plate. It is useful to have ideas and sketches with you for this. Please bring pencils and sketching paper, and wear clothes that can get dirty, as we will be working with oil-based paints. To help you, you can make your sketch on transparent paper, bring this with you if you have any.
On the 2nd day of the workshop we will print. Please bring a folder to carry your work with you to take home at the end of the day.
