Etchings

A metal plate is coated with a ground of acid-impervious material, and the artist draws through this coating to expose metal. The plate is then immersed in acid until the exposed areas are sufficiently eaten into or "bitten". The ground is then removed, ink is applied, and the plate is pressed against damp paper producing a reverse image. Deeper etches result in darker areas on the print.

We start off with dry point etching and make a small edition
