This proof is usually pulled from the most characteristic "key" element after the artist or printer has defaced it. A proof that is printed after the edition and any states are signed. It can be used to flatten the roughened printing plate by pressing against it, thereby lightening a line or a tonal area.Ĭancellation proof. Invented by Benjamin Day in 1879, it may be incorporated into a print by imposing a transparent sheet of dots on the image at some point during the photographic reproduction process.Īn engraving tool with a knob-like wooden handle and a metal shaft that has a sharply beveled point that cuts a V-shaped groove into a metal printing plate and provides a clean rich line for printing.Īn intaglio tool with a wooden handle and a metal shaft that has a smooth, hard end. An extension of collage, this technique became popular towards the end of the 1950s.Ī method of preparing an aluminum lithography plate that contributes to the resistance of grease and oil by providing a special even texture receptive to holding a drawing on the matrix.Ī shading medium that creates a textural and/or tonal effect. Aquatint is often used in combination with other intaglio techniques.Īn art object that uses three-dimensional found objects. The resulting etched, or bitten, surface is composed of textured areas rather than lines. After the plate has been treated in an acid bath, the acid-resistant material is removed.
The process entails adhering fine particles of resin to a metal plate as an acid resist. A proof that meets the right to print impression or standard used for the edition but is retained apart from the edition by the artist or publisher.Īn intaglio technique that produces effects similar to a watercolor wash, creating both even tones and/or tones with gradation or blending effects. The process hardens the surface, making it stain- and scratch-resistant.Īrtist's proof. Airbrushes are particularly useful when creating an even gradation of tone or color.Īluminum that has been electrochemically processed to change the molecular structure and alter its color to dark gray.
The tool used is an airbrush, which is generally attached to an electric compressor that can supply air to a precision spray gun.
In lithography, an image-making technique in which tusche is blown onto a plate or stone instead of being applied by brush or pen. A metal plate is immersed in a shallow tray containing an acid solution that chemically dissolves the metal not protected by an acid resist. Similar in nature to an artist's proof, it is usually the same as the edition but is a separate or additional publication.Ī process that produces recessed areas in the plate surface that holds ink. The copy of a three-dimensional object that is retained by the artist or publisher.
