You will be removing areas of the ground in this process. The areas that you remove will be the areas that accept the ink during printing. When the ground is dry, you may use sharp tools to scratch into the ground. You may add the solution to the plate with a brush. Next, the ground solution is added to the surface. In the demonstration video below, I am using a zinc plate. The plates used for etching are usually made of copper or zinc. You may choose to bevel the edges of the plate so that it will not tear the paper or damage the press. The process begins by preparing the plate for the ground material. This makes etching different from engraving. With engraving, the incisions are made by scratching directly into the plate without the aid of an acid "bite". Intaglio prints can easily be identified by the embossing that occurs around the printed image on the printing paper.Įtching in particular uses acid to "bite" into the metal surface. The ink is pulled up onto the moist paper, producing the print. Moist paper is placed on top of the prepared plate and ran through a press with the proper pressure. ![]() This allows ink to be left in the incisions. This is different from relief printmaking, where the image to be printed is raised from the surface. With intaglio printmaking techniques, printing is achieved by adding ink to the plate (matrix), then gently wiping away excess ink from the surface. In all of these processes, the image to be printed is incised into the surface or plate. ![]() My works are included in public collection, among others, in the Graphics Section of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts (HAZU) and in the SKC gallery in Belgrade, Serbia, Halifax,UK, Memorial Museum bishop Strossmayer Äakovo, Croatia, City"‹"‹ University Library,Osijek (GISKO) Croatia.Etching is a form of intaglio printmaking.
