This is a limited edition etching, created using the sugar-lift process. A sugar solution is painted onto the copper plate and a wax ground is rolled over the top. It is then put into hot water, where the sugar solution will float off, leaving the bare copper where I have painted. It is then put in an aquatint box, where a fine resin dust settles over the copper. After fusing to the plate with a bunsen burner, it is immersed in acid, leaving the image bitten into the copper.
It is taken from an edition of 50 prints.
