- A Safer, Greener Etching Method Aug. 1, 3 days.
Etching aluminum with copper sulfate is a safer, easier and cheaper alternative to traditional copper and zinc etching in acid. It even aquatints itself! Students will learn to prepare the etching bath, ground their plates with acrylic floor polish, transfer a drawing to the plate and scribe their design through the ground. Aquatinting methods will be demonstrated and practiced– no rosin, no spraying, no nothing!
