Solar etching of Cucumber Falls, Ohiopyle, PA
Solar
Printmaking is a highly
versatile and expressive medium, transforming original drawings, paintings,
photographs, JPEG’S, collage, and
copier art into high quality etchings.
As an artist I enhance, alter, and push and pull the value range of the
image. I create a plate using UV light (the sun) and tap
water without losing my image, printing a small edition on paper or fabric, and
clean up without the use of turps.
I do not use acids to etch the steel plate. Solar Printmaking is an artistic environmentally
friendly medium.
