Studio Season
Three times a year I open a seven-week studio season for a small group of up to five participants, concluding with a small afternoon exhibition at the Werkstatt.
What a Studio Season offers is accompanied practice: seven weeks of working on your own project at the press, with me alongside you. Each season uses one technique family as its shared ground — hard ground etching and aquatint, or drypoint and monotype — and part of what we do together is discover how that technique meets the way you already work. Precise and quiet, loose and expressive, narrative, abstract, traditional, wild: intaglio answers differently to each, and the seven weeks are the time to find out what it has to say to yours.
Each participant moves at their own pace, on their own image, with the group as a sounding board. By the final day most participants have one or two small editions — four or five prints each, signed and titled, shown together at the Werkstatt in an afternoon exhibition.
Prior printmaking experience is welcome but not required. What matters is an existing working practice in some medium — drawing, painting, photography, collage — and a readiness to see how etching meets it.
The next Studio Season: Intaglio
January 13 – February 6, 2027.
Registration opens November 15, 2026.
Seven sessions at the Werkstatt für Künstlerische Lithographie Treptow:
4 Wednesday afternoons (15:30 – 20:30)
and
3 Saturday mornings (10:00 – 14:00)
The final day, Saturday February 6, starts with a morning of editioning and ends with a celebration: a small exhibition from 16:00 to 19:00! The finished prints will be laid out under glass on the Werkstatt tables, and friends and family are warmly invited to join us for a glass of wine and a chance to enjoy the work together. It’s the perfect way to close the week!
What is included
Seven sessions of accompanied studio time (~35 hours total)
All materials: hard / soft ground, aquatint rosin, mordants and basic intaglio inks.
Full use of the Werkstatt facilities: press, acid room, aquatint box, drying racks
The final-day exhibition: space, invitations and drinks:-)
Documentation photographs of the exhibition, shared with participants
Participants bring: closed shoes, an apron or clothing suitable for ink and acid work, sketches or reference images for the plates they intend to make.
Please note: papers, plates and special inks are not included in the workshop price. Not sure what to get? Just reach out and I’ll happily point you in the right direction.
