Poppies II - Limited Edition 15 of 30 Print

This is an original hand pulled, unframed etching print. It is inspired by poetry of Kathy Enders: http://www.amazon.com/Beautiful-Man-Collection-Poetry-Enders/dp/1908132000 Plate size aroun 15x16 cm Paper size 30x30cm. Edition: 12/30 Printed on Fabriano Rosaspina Bianco 285gsm. It has rough trimmed edges around. It is ready to frame it and put it on the wall or make it as a lovely gift. To make this print I use piece of copper coated with acid resistant layer of ground. Then I scratch my drawing into the layer using a sharp tool like a needle. Next I put my copper plate in to the acid bath to let the acid bites away the exposed by the drawing metal. When the lines are deep enough I clear the ground off and rub the inks into the lines of the design and then I wipe the surface clean. I damp the paper then and place it over the plate and roll it through the printing press under great pressure. This causes the ink to be pulled out of the incised lines onto the paper and creates the plate mark. The last step is to dry the print and flat it down and of course sign it... please don't hesitate to contact me if you have more questions: my email: martawakulamac [!at] yahoo.ie to see more of my work please go on:http://martawakulamac.blogspot.com/ Thank you for stopping by!
