Well that is certaily true! I've done a LOT of prints using a plain old glass plate and oils and pulling prints. Of course its a one shot deal. I've also done wood and lino cuts at home, so you're right on that front.

No, I was thinking of the process of Etching, which I love, where you use an aluminum plate and scratch the image in using dental tools and such, then apply acid baths to create various effects. THEN! Inking the plate and running the image off of an etching press.

It's such a cool process. It takes a while to learn, but there is nothing like pulling a print the oollllllddddddd fashioned way and hoping for the best!

How do you do your print making? I am always in the market for new ways of doing things

Thanks!

Sunday . . . by the blue purple yellow red water,
On the green purple yellow red grass,
Let us pass, through our perfect park . . .
Through arrangements of shadows,
Towards the verticals of trees,
. . . forever.
