Learn the basics of etching, one of the oldest & most unique printmaking processes, at the historical Bluecoat Print Studios.

During this one day course you will learn the basics of copper sulphate etching, including learning about the history, tools & materials of etching and the chemical processes involved in creating a copper sulphate etched plate, as well as inking and printing your design on our fabulous century old Hughes & Kimber Etching Press.
