Dosbarthiadau
Pob flwyddyn mae Argraffwyr Aberystwyth yn rhedeg cyfres o dosbarthiadau a gweithdai sy'n ymdrin â chymaint o wahanol dechnegau gwneud print â phosibl. Yn 2016 a 2017 gwnaethom gynnal dwy wythnos o gyrsiau haf fel rhan or Jambori Haf – gwyl o gwneud printiau, sgyrsiau a hwyl ar lan y môr!
Mae dosbarthiadau blaenorol wedi gynnwys: Lithograffeg Cerrig, Lithograffeg Plat, Ysguthru, Argraffu Ryddhad, Colagraff a Sychbwynt. Mae gweithdau wedi eu ddysgu gan artistiaid lleol, cenedlaethol a rhyngwladol yn gynnwys Paul Croft, Judy Macklin, Gini Wade, Wuon Gean Ho, Marcelle Hanselaar, Andrew Baldwin, Brian Hindmarch a Cathy Boyle i enwi ond ychydig.
​
Mae dosbarthiadau yn agor i aelodau a rhai nad ydyn nhw'n aelodau ac mae nhw’n ffordd wych i ddysgu sgiliau newydd a ddod yn fwy cyfarwydd a hyderus gydag ymarfer a gweithdrefnau y stiwdio. Gellir archebu gweithdai trwy gysylltu â'r trefnydd fel yr hysbysebwyd.

Join Flora to learn the traditional art of etching copper. You will work on a 15cm square plate, first drawing with a needle into hard ground to make a linear image, and then adding shadowy tones to the plate with aquatint. Together we will ink and wipe our etching plates and you can print your own beautiful edition of etchings.
​​
​Ymunwch â Flora i ddysgu'r grefft draddodiadol o ysgythru copr, gan dynnu llun ar orchudd caled yn gyntaf i greu delwedd linellol, ac yna ychwanegu tonau cysgodol gydag acwatint. Inciwch a sychwch y platiau ysgythru ac argraffwch eich fersiwn hardd eich hun o ysgythriadau.

Lithography is the perfect process for artists who want to combine drawing with printmaking. Lino lithography is an accessible and low-toxic lithographic process that doesn’t require specialist equipment. Using lino as a print surface means you will be able to include all the fantastic qualities of relief print.

White ground is a wonderfully expressive and painterly method of etching. It can be combined with aquatint to make atmospheric thin washes or vigorous drawn images. It can also be used over a line etching to add tonal variation, or used on its own.
​​
Mae gorchudd gwyn (white ground) yn ddull mynegiannol a phaentiadol o ysgythru. Gellir ei gyfuno ag acwatint i wneud golchiadau tenau atmosfferig neu ddelweddau wedi'u tynnu'n gryf. Gellir ei ddefnyddio hefyd dros ysgythriad llinell i ychwanegu amrywiad tonaidd, neu ei ddefnyddio ar ei ben ei hun.
with Jenny Fell (Sunday Workshop)
