Shopping Inspiration｜Fab Friday - Drypoint Pet Portrait- 4th Dec 2026｜ Pet Supplies

Friday 4th December 2026
10am - 1pm
In this session we will be making a simple drypoint plate that can be inked up and printed intaglio through the etching press. Please bring along an image of a pet (or any animal) from which you would like to use to create a drypoint.
Drypoint is an easy technique to get to grips with and is a great method if you would like to take your drawings into print. It’s easier than etching as it requires less specialist equipment and no chemicals or acids. We will be using Drypoint Plastic as it is easy to draw into and a drawing can be traced through it! We will be scratching an image into the plastic. These lines create a burr that holds ink.
All materials and equipment provided. 
Do you need more time to finish your print? The studio is usually available after the workshop has finished for open access studio time – pay £5 per hour to stay and work independently. Just pay on the day for studio time and any extra materials used. To book, email shop@handprinted.co.uk, or just let us know during the class if you'd like to stay on.
All of our workshops take place in our studio at 22 Arun Business Park, Shripney Road, Bognor Regis, PO22 9SX.
