This is a multi-plate color etching using the color separation technique. I use four plates in these colors: red, yellow, blue and black.
The techniques on each plate include: line etching, soft ground, aquatint and engraving. The diverse array of colors is the result of the length of time in the acid, scraping and burnishing, and the overlapping of the plates when printing.
