Artwork description:

This is an aquatint etching on a zinc plate. Each plate is inked up individually so no two plates are the same. Aquatint is a light resin that is applied to the plate which is subsequently dipped in acid many times to achieve the tones. The fireflies are picked out with a needle after the ink is applied.

Materials used:

Somerset satin paper, etching inks, zinc plate
