Syeda Miral –
I completed the Intaglio Printing Initial course at Studio3 Academy in Quetta. The course gave me a solid introduction to intaglio printing, including techniques like dry point, Tetra Pak, and CD printing. I also learned about tools, color theory, registration, and paper handling. The hands-on approach and supportive instructors made it easy to understand and practice, and by the end, I had a small portfolio of my own prints. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in exploring intaglio printing.
