In this workshop Adrienne will show you how to create your drypoint print using a transparent acrylic plate which will then be printed with the Chapel's lovely vintage etching press.

Your plate can be printed in colour or monochrome and can be printed and re-worked several times.Bring an item or take photos of an object that you like or inspires you - it might be a treasured possession, a pair of baby's shoes, a chair you like the shape of, an ornament or jug of flowers.

The workshop will begin with some guided drawing exercises from your chosen objects.Suitable for both beginners and experienced artists.Adrienne Craddock - I was born and brought up in the beautiful Herefordshire Countryside, a feral child with the riverside to explore.

Life's journey took me to experience the drama of city life in Manchester, where I studied printmaking.

Back on home turf, my eyes are reopened to the contrasts and uniqueness of this rural borderland.

I now make prints that explore and celebrate my local landscape - awash with colour - to capture its evolving energy and forms.
