Final copper plate etching with stippling on the heart and earth, aquatint on the sky and mezzotint on the pump.
Copper Plate Etching, Aquatint & Spit Bite
Shown is an Etching on a copper plate, which utilizes 3 methods. 1 Hand drawn details, 2 Aquatint on shading on the pump and 3 Acid Bathing the plate at different time intervals to create the sky’s gradient. I would like to go back and remake the design.
