Join us in this 6-week course where you will learn about eco-safe methods within the intaglio etching process’ using BIG ground. Students will have an in-depth overview of hard and soft ground etching methods. Artist Dilara Miller will guide students through preparing their plates, applying and curing their BIG ground, mark making, incorporating textures to be etched, and printing their copper plates. Hardground is a method within intaglio to achieve detailed marks to be printed. In contrast, soft ground lends the ability to achieve soft marks and varying textures to be etched. Dilara will guide students in the Neighborhood Print Studio’s non-toxic methods. This class is open to all intermediate levels.

All materials will be provided, including a 4” x 6” copper plate.
