print&print, print AGAIN (part 1)

As I'm STILL doing the tapestry, I'll show some "mega mix" of printing techniques; only on metal plates.

whatever the technique : first the metal plate has to be clean , as shiny and as reflective as a mirror

this is aqua forte : some magic powder u spread on the plate. Then you warmth it and it melt.

here the plate is ready for acid : magic powder has melt and the dark part (lacquer) is dry. It will protect the plate from acid.
