The etching process was invented by the German artist Daniel Hopfer 1470-1536, etching -<br />
along with engraving mezzotint and aquatint - is one of the intaglio methods of fine art printing.<br />
In traditional etching, a metal plate, usually made from copper, zinc or steel, is coated with a<br />
waxy acid-resistant substance called ‚ground‘ upon which the artist draws his design with a<br />
metal needle, exposing the bare metal as he does so.<br />
I use my analog pictures and transfer them to a plate covered with a photopolymer film. Which<br />
then I can print on a large printing press.
