Etching on Zinc. 35x25 cm.
I took the subject of this print from a photograph saved from flickr some time ago. Unfortunately, I did not save the author's name, along with the image, and could not find it, even by exploring photographs of dry sunflowers on both the flickr and google search engines. I hope the owner of the original image has no problem with an intaglio reproduction of it; I would consider it a d'apres and homage. I find the photo really beautiful. I would like to be able to give credits to the original subject. If anyone knows of it, please come forward.
Acquaforte su Zinco, 35x25 cm.
Ho preso il soggetto di questa stampa da una fotografia salvata da flickr tempo fa. Purtroppo non ho salvato il nome dell'autore, insieme all'immagine, e non sono riuscito a trovarlo, anche esplorando le fotografie di girasoli secchi, sia sul motore di ricerca di flickr che di google. Spero che il proprietario dell'immagine originale non abbia problemi ad una sua riproduzione in calcografia, lo considererei come un "d'apres" e un omaggio. Trovo che la foto sia veramente bella. Mi piacerebbe poter indicare il soggetto originale. Se qualcuno ne è al corrente, si faccia avanti.

The etching press is a wonderful manual machine with a metal roller which moves slowly as the huge wheel is pulled round.
This time a drypoint plate with chine-colle detail is being printed on 250 gsm Fabriano.
An open edition copper plate etching.
The workshop has begun to run low on some resources and so this colour mix didn't have as much white as I would have liked. It's certainly bold!

This is the first try at home for etching - lots of PPI and fumes. :)

1991 habe ich einen VHS Kurs "Radierungen" besucht und dieses ist eins der Ergebnisse.
In 1991 I attended an adult education course "Etchings" and this is one of the results.
------------------------------------
Radierung (von lateinisch radere „kratzen, wegnehmen, entfernen“) bezeichnet ein grafisches Tiefdruckverfahren der künstlerischen Druckgrafik. Bei der Ätzradierung wird die Zeichnung in eine zunächst auf die Platte aufgebrachte relativ weiche Abdeckschicht gekratzt. Anschließend wird die Platte mit einer Ätzflüssigkeit geätzt, wobei nur die Stellen angegriffen werden, an welchen die Deckschicht verletzt wurde. Nach dem Spülen der Platte wird die Deckschicht entfernt.Die bei der Verletzung entstandenen Vertiefungen der Platte können Druckfarbe aufnehmen, wenn man die gesamte Platte einfärbt und mit einem Lappen oder ähnlichem die auf der glatten, unverletzten Oberfläche stehende Farbe wieder abwischt. Durch Aufpressen eines angefeuchteten Papiers wird die Farbe aus den Vertiefungen und Rillen wieder herausgesaugt und erscheint auf dem Druckpapier.
Etching is traditionally the process of using strong acid or mordant to cut into the unprotected parts of a metal surface to create a design in intaglio (incised) in the metal.
In traditional pure etching, a metal (usually copper, zinc or steel) plate is covered with a waxy ground which is resistant to acid.[15] The artist then scratches off the ground with a pointed etching needle[16] where he or she wants a line to appear in the finished piece, so exposing the bare metal. The plate is then dipped in a bath of acid, technically called the mordant (French for "biting") or etchant, or has acid washed over it.[18] The acid "bites" into the metal (it converts metal into salt solution and hydrogen) to a depth depending on time and acid strength, leaving behind the drawing skillfully carved into the wax on the plate. The remaining ground is then cleaned off the plate. For first and renewed uses the plate is inked in any chosen non-corrosive ink all over and the surface ink drained and wiped clean, leaving ink in the etched forms.
The plate is then put through a high-pressure printing press together with a sheet of paper (often moistened to soften it).[19] The paper picks up the ink from the etched lines, making a print.
This is an etching I did in my print making workshop. This is actually printed on cotton not paper but I really like how it's turned out. I coloured it with watered down red acrylic paint which also worked pretty well. If I ever learn to quilt I think this would make a lovely patch.
I was thinking about possibly doing a swap; one of these hand painted, printed squares of fabric for a couple of squares of lovely patterned fabric. Just let me know if you're interested. :)
