ETCHING

“Lambs Deep Etch, 6 x 9” 1 available, Unframed $275 Free Shipping within Continental US

Visit DCArtPress.com for more details.

Deep Etch is a term refers to the depth of the etched line in the metal plate that holds the ink. A normal etched line can be 1/64” in depth for a dark line. A deep etch line will be three to four times deeper and much wider in width. It is a bit harder to print as the line holds so much ink, more press pressure is required to pull the ink out of the lines onto the paper. The inked lined will actually stand in relief there is so much ink.

I would coat the metal plate with a heavier and softer layer of acid resist wax and draw through that with a sharp wood point creating a thicker line. Drawing through the wax, exposes the metal plate. The exposed areas of the metal plates are etched when submerged into an acid bath. The length of exposure determines the depth of the etch which in turn determines the darkness and intensity of the line.
