    Drawing, Screen Printing & Bookbinding with Australian Flora

    On Sat 5-Mon 7 April 2025, join artist Kelly Stewart for this unique course. The workshop offers an opportunity to focus on mark-making and drawings with the theme of Australian Flora. Tutor and artist Kelly Stewart has recently spent time in her native country and will be bringing back samples of Australian Flora as resource materials for this course. During this 3-day workshop, you will be converting drawings and mark making from day 1 into the screen printing process on day 2, followed by the final day of bookbinding where your beautiful flora inspired prints will become your very own artist book. You will learn how to combine layers of mark-making by using a range of materials to draw and paint directly onto films, which will then be exposed onto screens for printing. You'll also learn how to mix inks with a view to layer and overlap their imagery onto a range of papers. Subsequently you will be though how to hand stitch and bind your prints into a hardcover artist book. Do you already know how to screen print and/or bookbind, but are interested in having the unique opportunity to draw from samples of beautiful Australian Flora? You can book onto the drawing day independently here. Book over a month in advance to receive 15% off the course price with our Early Bird tickets!

    Drawn and Painterly Approaches to Etching Summer Course

    On 12-14 of July 2025 join us for painterly & drawn approaches to etching with Robert Powell. This 3-day course provides the perfect introduction to the medium of etching focusing on its use as a drawing and painting process. The course will start with a technical grounding, introducing innovative techniques that encourage spontaneous and diverse methods of mark-making. Work directly onto metal plates, developing images through various hand-applied techniques. Using new safer acid resists makes etching a much healthier process, using neither dangerous acids nor solvents. Following that, you will have time to develop plates using both copper and zinc to explore images and ways of creating images exploiting their etcherly qualities.

This course also entitles you to a FREE 3-month Associate Membership to use the studio and consolidate your skills.
