ED1 COLLAGRAPHS AND PAPER DRYPOINTS

here are a few of the many prints which have been created during the ED1 inductions in the Printmaking Workshop.

Heat Transfer Printing with ED1.

Its been a busy few weeks with the first round of rotations through the workshops. In the Textiles workshop we have been working with ED1 on their marking making brief, they have been translating their marks by using the heat tranfer press to print onto various fabrics...below are the results.

Welcome back!

...a new term begins and with a few changes in the workshops;

We bid farewell to Greg who is leaving HCA to embark on a residency in Japan making tradition Japanese paper. He will be greatly missed by both staff and students and all will agree he made huge changes in the 3D workshop.

Keep an eye on his blog www.dunn-roaming.blogspot.co.uk

...the good news is that Ian and Becky will now be running the workshop and no doubt there will be exciting times ahead...

We have some new tools and equipment in the workshops, most importantly the laser cutter which lives in the 3D workshop. Ian and Becky have started to produce some lovely samples and no doubt the new technology will enable students to produce some amazing work.

And finally...congratulations to Ellie who is expecting her first baby in February, we are all really excited!

Bye Bye Greg! already a dab hand with chopsticks :-)

ETCHING SAMPLES BY HANNAH

Hannah from ED1 has created some great samples for her 'Identity' project. she has used etched copper and brass plates inked in various ways to achieve different effects. She has inked the plate in the intaglio manner and also rolled them in two colours as viscosity prints. 
This shows how versatile etching plates can be.

Sandblasted Wood Blocks

Vicky from ED 1 has been working hard, completing work for her final major project.  Here is a sample of the lovely work she's been doing with colour and text, utilising the sandblaster and vinyl cutter, to good effect.
