Why We Love This Unique Experience

Unleash your creativity and immerse yourself in the captivating world of art with a unique experience that allows the creation of an original art print. This hands-on workshop invites art enthusiasts to explore their artistic side, learn the fundamental techniques of engraving, and take home a masterpiece that reflects their own imagination. Perfect for anyone looking to escape the ordinary and dive into the world of craftsmanship, this experience offers an unforgettable journey into the artistry of printmaking.

During this enriching experience, participants will be guided through the intricacies of engraving using both the drypoint technique on Plexiglas and zinc. With personalized attention in a small group setting, creativity flourishes as aspiring artists select their subjects, prepare their drawings, and transform their designs into tangible art prints. Every step of the process, from the initial concept to the final print, is a chance to learn and express oneself, leading to a proud moment when the finished piece is finally held in hand. This immersive workshop not only builds skills but also serves as a therapeutic outlet for self-expression.

Searching for the perfect gift for a loved one? This art print creation experience is an exceptional choice! Ideal for family members and friends looking to explore their artistic talents together, it provides a memorable activity to share while cultivating creativity. An original art print created personally makes for a cherished keepsake or a beautiful addition to any home, ensuring that the experience is one that keeps giving long after the ink has dried.

Experience Overview:

Create Your Original Art Print

The ancient art of engraving, which had its greatest splendor and diffusion in Venice, will have no more secrets! For those who want a unique experience in the ancient world of craftsmanship, I organize individual courses (one or at most two people) to explain and put into practice the basic techniques of engraving. Participants will thus have the opportunity to create a real art print made by them (on their original idea or drawing) and take it home. An experience that they will certainly not forget - in fact, they can hang it in their home! The course includes etching with the drypoint technique on Plexiglas or drypoint on zinc. I will follow you in the choice of subjects, in the preparation of the drawings and during all the processing phases, from the initial study to the processing of the plate up to the final prints.
