Degree-level printmaking distance learning with OCA
Putting your name to an edition, out there for all to see brings a sense of achievement for any budding printmaker.
Printmaking itself has a rich history, and innumerable cultural contexts, allowing for a broad and rewarding learning journey as you try out new experiences you may not have been exposed to.
Through a printmaking course, you’ll explore engraving, etching, wood-relief, monoprint and more to create exciting new designs and templates enabling you to create editions. Even within each edition, each single issue can take on its own life creating a dynamic set of images.
What is an online printmaking course?
Some higher education institutions, such as OCA, offer UK printmaking course programmes remotely – giving access to just about anyone, anywhere around the world. Online printmaking courses can also offer all the expert support you would find with a traditional printmaking course, but with additional flexibility that makes them incredibly accessible for people in a variety of circumstances.
By taking an online printmaking course or a remote learning degree programme that incorporates printmaking – you can pursue your printmaking journey, broadening your skills and understanding, while you continue to honour any personal or professional responsibilities you may already have.
