We want to create an ambitious project, that will finally culminate with an exhibition of prints touring Italian botanical gardens, to offer participants the drawing skills required to render accurate depictions of the plant world as well as the intaglio skills to turn the drawing into a successful print. Two tutors, with specific training, will ensure to offer the best possible tuition and assistance.
One week course: 8-14th June 2009

By confronting printmaking with other media, tutors, artists and students will be able to develop professional projects or ambitious bodies of work and to understand the practice of being an artist or to relate with the art business.
